Cars you dont want to Detail...
I will start:

1. Mitsubishi Pajero (Although I did one this weekend)

Sticky Paint. Dodgy door sills and no plastic in the Engine Bay.

Lets here your opinions and pet hates of certain cars you have detailed or refuse to detail Icon9

RE: Cars you dont want to Detail...
Fezza 456Gt... KHAAAK soft paint WAAAY too much to tape off and you'll spend at least a week detailing that engine bay - Don't even go near a F40... same paint, more surface than a cayenne and if you say you'll do engine you have a problem in your head...

And then I'm also NOT very fond of old VAG cars, the paint is FAK Hard... takes so long

'04 BMW 318ti
'01 Mercedes-Benz ML 270 CDI

I would think the paint on a F40 is too thin to safely machine polish.

Perhaps Mr Savage has balls the size of car wheels?

RE: Cars you dont want to Detail...
Hehe, no but I have a very trusting friend with a few fezzas :-)

Rosso sport does a de-swirl and polish at service time (Don't worry even if they charged you an extra R1500 you wouldn't notice the difference on your invoice) and they use "Special Ferrari polish" applied with cotton wool by hand

I had a look around, guys do actually machine polish them. Lol I would love to know what special Ferrari polish is. Prob something very pretty common otherwise they would have named it.
