Another annoyance....
You spend all day washing, drying, waxing, polishing, etc....
When you are done, its still sunny outside. You marvel at how clean your car is, so you decide to drive to your friend's house and fish for some compliments. You arrive at your friend's house and say "Hey man, check out how shiny my car is!" only to get their dreaded response (and they are right)....."Hey, you missed a spot!"

I got one, after spending hours after hours waxing/detailing your ride and when you're done, you take it for a spin and the sun disappear and it pours.
Here's my list-
1. Other people's kids finger printing the shit outta your car.
2. People that lean their back on your trunk and have their foot on your bumper.
3. Small dogs/cats that refuses to get the hell out of being under your car.
4. Birds!!!
5. Bugs!!!
6. Semi-trucks
7. People that be munching on sunflower seeds and tossing it out the window.
8. People that comes over and check out your car while you're doing something in the engine bay and palm your fender while they look at what you're doing.
9. Someone with a sweating hand.
10. Someone that farts in your car while you're driving. (you can hear it smuggin/staining in the seats).
11. Annoying person who touches everything in the car.
12. Garbage trucks

I also hate the spring. Sure the weather is nice, but you get a nice coat of greenish crap all over the car, and all the blooming flowers blow into your interior. Same with fall. Leave your top down for a few minutes while parked, when you come back, you need to rake your interior.

#?) Scratchy microfibers...
I cannot seem to get these puppies clean or soft enough. Maybe I need to add more vinegar? But, I was just going over my garage queen tonight with some QD and found that I had some slight marring. The car has only been outside once since the detail...

**Side Bar (please continue posting detailing annoyances)
I have a few sonus buffing towels and one that I got from Danase when I bought some stuff from them. I assume it's their repackaging of a MF Tech Ultra or something. I never use after dropping on the ground and now that you mention it, I might apply slight pressure. But they even feel scratchy, like when I rub them on my hand there's a drag to it...Make sense?
