Waver for engine cleaning?
Hey guys, I was talking to my old boss the other day and he said he has his customers sign a waver stating that his shop isn't responsible for engines running rough or any other complication after a engine detail. I was wondering if any of y'all do that?

•IMO:
-That's a harbinger of a Business
being uninsured/underinsured;
and/or: untrained/undertrained...
-with either scenario being powerful
deterrents for potential Customers.

Yeah I can see from a customers pov it could seem that way. I know for a fact they are professionals over there at the same time I have no idea about the specifics of they're insurance policy. I could imagine that there are a number of negative variables to what could potentially go wrong with a engine detail. From a customer making fictional accusations to get over or actually something going wrong.

I don't do engine at all for a 200.00 detail,is not worth 1000.00 repair.writing or not and you have to be a idiot to sign a waiver.

Yeah I hear ya man. Def wouldn't throw a engine detail in with a 200 dollar detail. I know they get a lot of business. Not sure how the form is presented either.

I paid out 3500.00 on a s600 for a stupid engine cleaning,even with all the covering and precautions it takes.just not worth it on a 800.00 detail. Some people will disagree but there time will come if they do a lot of production detailing.oh look my car and engine is spotless but it deosnt run lol.

Wait a minute...
Didn't you used to work for him?
Didn't you ever do an engine detail
when you worked there?

Some of the later models with all the plastic covering you can just wipe it down,takes time and ruins rags but for 25 to 50 dollars I personally don't want to get involved.

Yeah of course I did plenty. Never had a problem. But now that I'm independent and hearing all these horror stories it's different.
