ChargerMatt Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I just ignore it, become completely short and condescending, and keep on my business. I can now work in peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07RS4 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Not any more...but I can only imagine what they are thinking. My wife has never really cared, but like some of the other posts, I ensure hers is always spotless....and to tell you the truth, she loves it. She just doesn't know it, haha.

SonicHD Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 The thing that annoys me the most, is every time I have washed a car; from washing my parents car when I was a kid, till now, is that everyone that walks by thinks their a comedian with "Oh you can do mine next!" Im soooo sick of hearing that. No, Im not washing your freaking car and sometimes I feel like Im gonna go postal on the next one that says that LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
69supersport396 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 My neighbors also say, "You're gonna wash/wax the paint right off of that car." Depends on what they see me doing at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try to count how many times neighbors use that old cliche. Since can't wash in our garage,I only get a little disturbed when you are in the middle of a time critical step like drying while you have that last little bit of shade left and people stop by to BS then have to use that old cliche.

Oh yeah, I hate that too. "Excuse me, I need to finish this." How about hearing everyone's opinions of what stuff you should be using. My favorite tip was water, a sponge, dry it, then oldschool Turtle Wax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pureshine Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Ya I get crap all the time but when you own a detail business you have to keep your car clean. People don't want a detailer with a dirty car lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony97gt Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I'll usually reply "yeah for $300 I'll wash yours next". They don't make foolish comments anymore, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongosg8 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I get grief from everyone. From the Wife to the family from the neighbors. They will drive by and say you will wash the paint right off that thing. What do you do take it out of the garage to wash it once a week? Wife tells me why wash it ..it only stays in the garage! Sometimes the family asks if they can wash their cars at my house and use my products.. I now tell them for a $40.00 fee. I usually tell them all (except the wife) at least my vehicles look like new still and all of yours look like S---! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marre Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 It's odd, but the same people who give me grief about cleaning and waxing the car too much also tell me how good the car looks. This includes family. Very confusing. Now, two of the neighbors that question my dedication want me to help them with their cars after the holidays are over. I'm happy to help but this just deepens my confusion. Maybe I can turn them on to Adam's once I show them how easy they are to use and how high the quality of the products are. And then maybe at least 2 people will stop giving me conflicting comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.greenroyd Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 ^same way with me. They always make comments but once they see how good i am they want me to do their vehicles. But the more people talk the better, my name is starting to get around town real quick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRZN Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 My close neighbors know I'm a bit off, so they give me a wide berth and don't say much. The ones that don't know me very well, well, I run towards them with the hose on screaming, they don't say much after that. Huh, you know, they don't usually pass by the house anymore either...

PacificNWBuckeye Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I've gotten the same normal "Mine next", "you gonna wash the paint off" to being accused of repainting my Crown Vic after a correction of Adams. My last apartment I lived in shared a driveway with the neighbor and got slightly tired of the joking mine next that not long before we moved he pulled in when I was finishing up and made one of those comments, so once he was inside I washed his too.
