SS LeadFoot Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 It never fails. Just about every time I wash my car someone has to come up and ask if theirs is next, or some variation of that question. I can't be the only one, can I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shane@detailedreflections Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I've gotten it. Usually when I start talking pricing the conversation quickly ends. It's an annoying question and everyone thinks they're funny by asking it. I think some people just don't realize how annoying it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stirthepot Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 i get it often, but i take it a compliment in that people see my cars are well kept and would like theirs to look so good as well. so it doesn't bother me. mc2hill and Mrjoeman77 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blcksilv08 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I get that quite often or the old, "you're going to wash the paint off that." Lately I just put my headphones in and ignore it, sounds rude but they ignore me pretty often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkj4243 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Only get it from one particular annoying neighbor....................... the other's all compliment how the family vehicles look in our household, and I have some converted to washing their own vehicles using Adam's products. 8675309'SS and ocdrifter 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GXPaycheck Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 The fact is they are noticing what you are doing and are impressed enough to mention it. Take it as a compliment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexWalker Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I don't mind it. People have a hard time starting conversations sometimes. It is better than, "nice weather we have been having". But yes, I hear it a lot 8675309'SS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PacificNWBuckeye Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I used to get that so much when I lived in one apartment, every time the neighbor that I shared a driveway with came in and I was washing he would say that, I had enough one time, so I washed his when he went in....

ZMAN024 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Without fail, every time I wash one of my vehicles in the driveway, someone will stop in the street and yell out the window questioning "if their's is next". My usual reply is they have to come back in 4 or 5 hours when I'm finished "because you can't rush perfection". Truth is........... I'm just really slow .

Rich Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 I'm lucky and live off of a road, private driveway, and woods so no neighbors bothering me. It's when I take the cars out that people will yell "nice car, what do you use?" or my wife will get "where do you take your car for detailing?" She loves that one. 8675309'SS, ZMAN024 and mc2hill 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS LeadFoot Posted October 27, 2017 Author Share Posted October 27, 2017 It doesn't bother me. I find it funny no matter what people will say the same thing. No matter where I live, same result. I usually just say I will add your name to the list and smile. I like the 4-5 hour thing. I will start saying that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crowvet Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Usually just as it's all soaped down and I need to rinse and dry before it spots. That's when someone feels it necessary to talk to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you so important that you can't take 30 seconds to say hello to someone? Or are you just the type of angry person that you sound like in your post?

JHL88 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I get it as well and its usually someone driving by in their car rolling down the window and asking me. My usually response is "If you have the cash" or "everything has a price" they usually grin and drive off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianT Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 I get it a lot, but they usually follow it by saying that can't afford to pay me for an all day detail!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
694doorbird Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Went out this morning To bring in the trashcan. Little kid across the street waiting for the school bus asked me if I could teach him how to wash cars. I would guess he' in the 4th grade. I told him someday, and he went away with a smile on his face. ZMAN024, falcaineer, Liralen and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
