Detailing Professionals – Certain Vehicle Issues To Be Especially Vigilante About
by Rodney TatumI have mentioned before this specific issue with BMWs. I will not say the issue affects all BMWs nor will I say other vehicles can’t also be a concern. But an overwhelming majority of BMWs I have detailed that are older than 3 years old have had this issue with its seals in certain areas.

You should also proceed with caution regarding cleaning red leather seats. Test surfaces with safe products in a small area. Dye transfer can be an issue, especially with older vehicles. Color absorbed into my towel from sweat. Obviously I choose not to detail this seat.



I have also discovered some adhesive issues with some older BMWs and high performing exotic vehicles.
I am not as familiar with Tesla paint as many of my peers, but I will pass on the concerns many have shared with respect to removing paint protection film. When you are performing certain tasks where there is a risk of pulled paint, the risk for Tesla is universally considered higher in the community. What many have found in the detailing community, that many proud owners have a difficult time understanding this. This also highlights my desire to share this with you, in the interest of liability protection. With the popularity of Paint Protection Film services, coupled with the increase in those budget friendly non reputable options, I believe this information is even more relevant.
I mention this to encourage client communication, written documentation, as well as photo/video record keeping, in the interest that you are protected from unfair liability issues. We are often irrationally looked at with skepticism. We also live in a world where consumers are completely uneducated, via misinformation and ignorance about these issues. But we are also more than ever in a predatory state where consumers are looking to undermine honest business owners for their own gain.
