I had to clean a guys throwup one time. He failed to mention that before I got done cleaning it. I cleaned it but not good enough so he got all pissy. That ****** talked alot of **** for being in a wheelchair. I about pushed him down the street.

I knew a relative who put his false teeth in the cupholder of his car. When I friend bought it, I cleaned up what was left of the nastiness (relative=Dee Dee Dee) with 8 paper towels ( to protect my hands), then told him what it was.

My horror detailing story, I left a lot of swirls in my paint after using rubbing compound ALL OVER my car... Luckily, Klasse Sealant glaze makes it so that you'd never know they existed
