    Similar deal over here. Although there are certain gigs where there’s armed security in some places, but generally security guards aka rent a cops get no respect. Lol.

    I was at the bank yesterday and the security guard was a fairly cute girl with no kind of gear whatsoever. I thought to myself what the hell is she going to do if guys come in here with guns and things get crazy? Lol.

    And conversely, I was in the supermarket the other day, and there was a security guard who was packing, and I thought to myself "why do they need an armed guard looking over the self-checkout?" "Hands up, you're not putting an 'unexpected item in bagging area' on my watch!"

    EDIT: Shoot, I missed my chance to end that with "but she took me back to her place, so it all worked out."

    Today I did a really really bad Kia Sorrento interior detail. Mom who lets kids eat in the vehicle. Try not to gag.

    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I usually put my towels in a plastic bag before putting them in a detailing bag. This is a bit of a pain though & I don't really see others do it, so I thoroughly vacuumed & cleaned my detailing bag and put some towels straight in. I'll shake out & inspect them before using and will see how it goes.

    I also applied Lexol to some leather to once again see if it makes the leather softer, but I'm still unsure

    bdubbs, not to pry, but is that your personal space? Or is that your work space? Is that an industrial building? I'm just asking because that's like a dream garage, was just wondering if it's at your house, your work, or if you lease it somewhere.

    No worries.

    It's our personal shop. We bought it a couple years ago. It's been my dream garage/shop for many years.

    It's not at my house, but only about a mile away. We added the polyurea floor coating and a security system. Otherwise it's how it was when we bought it.

    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    So was there a business in there originally? I don't think I'm ever going to be able to add anything like that at my house, so maybe I'll have to look for something like you have for sale/lease around me...someday.

    The previous owner used it for some woodworking. I believe the shop was built in 2010.

    I only have a single stall garage at the house and always wanted to put up a 3 stall. The wife likes our backyard too much, and I like leaving the house. Great compromise.
