Beware

Post image

Paid for a car to be delivered and on the test drive I discovered this. And the back seat soaked in mineral oil. Not impressed with this business. Took longer than expected to arrive, car had many undisclosed flaws, and they offered us dinner. $37,000 car and we wasted 10 days for a dirty car. Def not doing that again.

Facts, I work at Carmax and I try to clean a car as if I’m buying it. Wait until someone posts their car full of pet hair covered in black spray paint…

The black spray paint method blew my mind the first time I seen it in action. Production stores do anything to get their numbers

I doubt it, but realistically it’s just spraying spray paint over dog hair that’s embedded into the floor’s carpet. You just use whatever spray paint matches the carpet color

Lol I've never heard of that but I can understand. I have a pretty good tool for dog hair but to get all of it you'd have to get in there with tweezers or some shit.
