detailing to prevent lawsuit?

[Matt@Revive]

the shop i work out of services Fiskers, they had one towed in from Las Vegas about 8 months ago that was completely dead. the car sat in (key word "in") the shop on a rack for about 4 months waiting on parts and software. when i saw it at first i noticed the massive amount of paint oxidation over the entire car. i asked a few times if they wanted me to fix it, they said "it is a dealer owned car so they could take care of the paint when they get it back".

fast forward 4 months, the shop got a call from the owner of the car in Vegas pissed off because our shop destroyed the paint on the car.... the only thing whey touched were the windows so they could test drive the car.

so the shop owners approch me and ask if they can pay me to drive to Vegas to do paint correction on this car to prevent him from suing the shop. my responce was "heck yes, i'll take a paid trip to Vegas!!!", but now i'm wondering if i want to get myself involved with a pissed off, sue happy, vehicle owner who may point the finger at me for not being able to fix the paint.

Matt it's sue / suing

Make sure you're covered by the shops insurance and get it in writing. Have them give you something in writing that absolves you personally of all liabilities.
