Who has lost their precious detail supplies or equipment under the wheel of their or someone elses car. I did a quick wipe down of the hood for the first time using my brand new bottle (7 days old) of CG V7. Had to make a run to the hospital for awhile to see my wife. Rolling back up to my apartment and I see a vaguley familiar bottle in the road crushed. Im thinking no it cant be i took it inside right, Guess not! :doh:

Not anything valuable but ive ran over a little plastic chair that i sit on while im working on the front end of my car, twice. Luckily there wasnt any damage but youd think I would have learned the first time.. Nope!

About a month ago, I ran over an unopened bottle of Meguire's Ultimate Liquid Wax.

I've run over a vacuum hose more than twice over the years and they're never the same.....Almost ran over a wash bucket but I heard it tip over so I stopped....:dunno:

Sometimes a person is preoccupied, or burdened, with things that
causes their mind to wander a little bit every now and then.

BTW: How's the Wife doing...Hope she's alright.

I ran this backing plate over with my van while I was preparing for a mobile job. I didn't even realize it had fallen out of my bag into the driveway. I saw it after I backed the van out. Being my only DA backing plate at that particular time, I had to do the entire job with a rotary.

I have not run over anything yet.

The biggest mishap was my DA fell off the workbench and broke the rear housing. It still works but the rear plastic piece is now held on with tape.

I've run over a grit guard before. Broke off one of the bottom pieces, bust was still able to use it.

I've also run over the used oil catch-pan after changing the oil on my old, slammed, Ford Contour. To say that I made a mess would be an understatement.

Backed over my Milwaukee rotary with the work van, was almost 15 years old at the time. Was hoping I ruined it to give me an excuse to buy a new one, but the dang thing still works! It just won't die :(

I had some Jerk run over my polish and spray the entire side of my customers car after I had finished it. I had the pleasure of repolishing the entire thing after....he didnt even appologize
