    its not like the whole shovel scraped the paint. just a part of the shovel had something hanging off a few inches. and THAT part is what scratched the car.

    I guess dont take the risk honestly.

Fantastic 50/50 pics.
    exactly! us being fluent with detailing, and exactly how easy it is to damage paint, we wouldn't ever do such a thing. BUT, i'm sure we all do something that she'd never try.
    and thank you for the kind words! she's brining her rx200 to me beginning of march i believe.

    could also be a case of "over confidence"

    Oh man. This made me feel so guilty because a few weeks ago when we got hit with the blizzard, I accidentally put a deep scratch along the bottom of the door to my Father's SVT Lightning. Last summer I did a full correction and coated it with Gloss-Coat, so I am going to wait until e warmer weather of Spring to repair the damage and re-coat.

    Great outcome Rich! Glad the customer was happy. I think now on she will be a bit more careful.
