"that is just a risk you run with hand washes"

She should have done this

and told him that was the risk he runs when he scratches her car.

I can`t stand hackers like that. :angry

Great job on removing the scratches and the paint looks terrific! :up

Nice job Mike!

There is one of those $20 hand car wash places down the street from me. The other day I saw 3 guys drying off a new SL 500 with those California water blades. I just cringed.

Thanks again all!!

NiFreaky I charged her my normal rate for a clay and two step detail. Since she is such a good client and always very generous with tips I ate the cost of the scratch repair. I wrote her a separate invoice at nearly triple my normal rate to hand to the wash owner. The worst he can say is no...the best is my client gets some reimbursement for the pain and suffering she went through on his account.

Scott...speak the truth man!! I honestly think he thought he could get away with a line like that because of her gender.

Woody that doesn`t surprise me one bit. Sometimes when I drive by Coronet`s on Shallowford Road I see high end cars getting "detailed" with 11" oribitals using terry bonnets!!

You can tell it`s a woman`s car.... Look how it`s parked! Just kidding....Car looks great! I`d totally drop that top and go cruisin` in that. Mike, if you`re up to getting a beer sometime, I`d love to take a peek at Lola. Later dude.

[B]Hello all!!

Nissan definitely hit a home run with these machines. If Nissan puts some type of forced induction (either a turbo or a blower) on them from the factory...I`m going to have to do some soul searching!! (QUOTE)

before you do any real Soul Searching, check out the Road & Track Issue (a couple months back) where a handful of high performers were rated....

I think the Z did not impress anyone in the panel, and IF it didnt place last then it came 2nd last. (out of 9 cars).

If you do any soul searching you needn`t look too much further than your own back yard (Chevy C6 won that `competition`):up

But yeah the Z car looks pretty nice parked!
