I Could Kill

Had the Sky all polished up and drove it into work today

I had it parked in our garage here at work and I went out to move it before the trucks came in, and some A$$hole wrote on the hood with his or her finger through the dust .... not I have scratches

If I knew who did it I would get fired, cause I feel like I could kill someone right now !

Mother F'n A$$hole,

I know how you feel. I was at a late nite after hours taco stand and some young drunk kid started leaning on my Sky. I said hey Mother F$&%ER don't lean on my car. Some drunk fat chick said oh that's only a Saturn. I said I don't care if it's a F&%$ING Pinto get off my F%$*ING car!!! I gave him my look of death and he backed off.

I feel your pain. I came out to my car from work Monday and noticed a nice little ding in my door right in the crease and the car next to me couldn't have done it because we were too far apart for it to hit, plus it's the car of one of my co-workers who loves my car. I hope whoever did it gets what they have coming to them and someone gets to enjoy it when they get it.

about your problem. I know I would be beyond

Maybe it would come in handy for us Sky people to learn how to become fingerprint experts.

We all need to go down to Bass Pro Shop and get one of those motion activated wildlife cameras and set it up whenever we park.

Too surgical. Claymores, that's the ticket.

Mother F'n A$$hole,
Sorry! My question is...if your Sky was all polished how did that much dust get on it that short amount of time? Did you get scratches...(I didn't understand the "not I have scratches")

I agree that the person who did this is a real low life...

To answer a few questions:

1. They wrote two zig zag lines and a big half circle on the hood
I have NO IDEA why, unless the little pricks are jealous !

2. At work it appeared scratched as hell, once I got home and cleaned it off
you can hardly tell. I think it will come off with the next polish, if not I'll have
to do some buffing. the word "not" was misspelled meant to be "now"

3. I can wipe down my Sky and before I get all the way around the car the
freakin things looks dusty again..... Black looks good clean but
sure is hard to keep clean... Buy the time I got to work you could see
dust on it and plus someone kept the garage doors opened and the wind
was blowin like crazy yesterday.

4. Yes, I like the Idea of the claymores.......BOOOOOOM.......Look that stupid
SOB just blew my car up.....followed by what color would you like sir ?

I use the Klasse products. Does a great job. The car looks shiny, but most of all the glossy coat is anti-static and the dust stays away, and I only do it a few times a year. Other times I just hose the car down (unless it is filthy), dry it off and go over it with a detail spray real quick.

I spend less time polishing and more time driving, and the car looks great. I also use the coating on the rims and the brake dust stays away.

A friend of mine tried the stuff on his car. He doesn't wash much at all. He said that three months later (not having washed the car once) people were still telling him how good it looked.

I'll never use another car care product.

You think thats bad. My dads had to wash his sky after I polished it. He used a dirty old sponge, a chamois and one bucket to clean the body and wheels. Totally piss me off after seeing the car after he was done !!!ARGH!!!

rough deal man, i recommend going to a specialty shop that details cars and getting some professional waxing products to keep up the appearance and i9f you work the wax good enough it should take care of those scratches. just work on them in a nice steady motion , when your trying to get scratches out this works the best.

1. work on them in the same spot going the same direction in a circular motion
2. go nice and smooth
3. don't apply to much preassure the point is to polish not to rub
4. work the rough spots for about 10-15 minutes smooth light circles
5. your arms will be tired as hell
6. boom they should be gone

Buy a rock hammer keep it with you for such occasions.

Door ding in my door and I see the car that did it and or it is still parked next to me with nobody in it. Instant hole through the door.

Big dent followed by scratches. Holes in the roof over the drivers seat!

I see one do the action. Same thing followed by a beating or if they are much bigger than me slashed tires.

I park my Sky right outside my office window. Last week my boss comes in to work and I see him park his SUV right beside my car. I'm thinking to myself, "Good grief, could he have parked any closer? He has to have pinged my door..." Well, I go out for lunch and theres a big scratch down the side of my door where he must have swung his breifcase right down the side of the car. How freakin inconsiderate! Do you know how hard that was to keep my mouth shut? I immediately went to the car wash and I buffed it out with some wax. If it hadn't, I'd probably would have lost my job over it. Instead, it buffed out and I'm sitting here at work playing on the internet all day as pay back.
