    95% of people don't care and don't have respect. They aren't as educated as the people on this website and aren't aware what they are doing can mar and swirl the paint.
    With that being said, I hate when people even walk by my car. I need a piece of crap beater.

    Not a chance, that's not the creed of a true autogeek, tell me that when they have a pair of jeans with metal rivets on the back pockets on or dangling keys and they put a nice big scratch in your paint down past the clear, don't think you'll be so understanding then.

    I don't even really touch my paint unless I have a microfiber towel or my microfiber gloves on. Skin, even dry looking skin, leaves oil on the surface and I simply don't like it. That being said, don't touch my paint and you better not lean or sit on my car or it is "go time".

    I work in a restaurant and run caterings in my personal car. Sometimes the catering client will meet me at my car to pick up the food where they have to sign the receipt.. Guess where the first place they put the receipt followed by the pen is?!?!?!

    nope.. I have a neighbor whos kid has rubbed up against my car (Black 350z) Flawless paint and he doesn't say anything and when I tell her no he acts like it's rude. So I said, I'll send you my invoice for buffing it out.. ignorant people!

    Maybe you should invest in a clip board

    I wear specific clothes when detailing my car.
    I get nervous when anyone is near my car.

    I like to detail my car, same way I like to vacuum my carpet or shine my shoes. But I don't sweat about people touching my car, the same way I don't sweat about getting any other item I own dirty. I don't park half way across the parking lot for fear someone will ding my car. It's just a car...
    That's just me... It does not mean it's right or wrong, it's simply how I roll.

    Nothing wrong with this- probably keeps your blood pressure lower than mine.

    For me touching my car is almost like coming up and touching me. It's like you just invaded my personal space. Maybe that's weird... but it's me
