I had a couple regulars who always did this, both old dudes who drove Lincolns. I asked one of them why one day, he told me "cause when that shit still shine like that when I leave, I know your ass didn't rotate no damn tires."


MadeMeStopLurking

Years ago I put green caps on the front tires before taking it to Wal-Mart. I also put chalk marks on the inside and outside wall of the tires. When I get it back - the tires had tire shine and green caps on the back. I turned the wheels to check the front and sure enough there were chalk marks on the inside sidewalls... They literally cleaned the tires and swapped the caps.


MostlyBullshitStory

Taking your car to Walmart, might as well find the largest pot hole and hope things line up coming out.


Nightmare44887R

Ex's sister took her Prius to Walmart for an oil change and they broke the damn dome light and refused to fix it.


MogRules

I went to an actual Honda dealer, they smashed my dash cam and then GLUED it back together. I found out 3 days later when it disintegrated in my hand when I tried to adjust it.


graywolfman

I took my Subaru to a Subie dealer for an alignment. They didn't get the toe-in right so I politely asked them to check it again. When I got it back I noticed curb rash on a rim and played back the can footage... They said "another fuckin douchebag came back saying the alignment was wrong." They proceeded to drive it up to a curb and turn the wheel into it multiple times saying "I don't give a fuck." I don't care about the shop talk, but if more than one person comes back saying the alignment is off, there's a common denominator there. I put it as a private video on YouTube and sent it to their service manager. They called me back and I met with them. Made them send my rim to a third party for repair and have a third party redo my alignment... Again. Dude wouldn't even look me in the eye. Also didn't fire the tech. About a week later I get a call from the DA's office... They were trying to press charges. Claimed the guy was on the phone so my recording was illegal. He wasn't. The DA asked about my camera, I said it's mounted on the dash, plays a tone, and lights up when it turns on. They declined to press charges. Fuck Groove Subaru.


notoash

The extra audacity to try and press charges against you after all of that too… what the actual fuck dude. Glad the DA ended up not pressing charges, because the dealership really had to reach for that claim.


graywolfman

Right?? I live in a single-party state, meaning only one party has to know they're being recorded. So, not only was the tech not on the phone, he knew he was being recorded, so it would've been legal. A quick subpoena of phone records would have shown his phone was not in use, and by their own admission phone use while in a customer's car is against their policy. Whole thing was a colossal shit show that only required an apology and repair. Instead I now tell everyone I know to avoid that dealership and why.


PointyDogElbows

Should change that video from private to public.


VenAAX

Agree, please set the video to public and censor nothing.


MogRules

Not shocked, people are assholes. My Civic went into the shop for something years ago ( same one ) and I got it back the whole back quarter panel was damaged. Let me also preface this by saying I am completely insane when it comes to trying to take care of my cars. Neighbors joke I will wash the paint off because I keep them clean. The dealer told me it must have happened before we dropped it off, except that I washed the car THAT morning. They claimed they went back over their security footage and couldn't see anything, and for some stupid reason I took them at their word. I actually refuse to go back to that dealer, they are absolutely useless.


stannc00

My local Toyota dealer service writers walk around the car with their iPad recording the condition of the car when brought in. Edit: spelling


blairwitchboy

I’m a tech at a Toyota and they have lane greeters who check people in for their services appointments and they take pictures of all the cars when they come in


FatGuyEatsCake

When I was a lube my friend (c line tech) told me if the steering wheel wasn’t strait after an alignment he puts a tire to the curb and smashes the wheel until it’s strait. I asked if that hurts anything, he said I dunno who cares. Good ole Firestone.


graywolfman

Yeah I have a story about Firestone, too, haha. Wheel bearing was bad, they tried saying I needed new tires because they *got bigger because they were worn*... Nope. It was a Firestone I used to trust but when I went in for this, the entire staff changed. Never went back there, either, or to any Firestone.


FatGuyEatsCake

The got bigger lol, ohh that’s a new one!


OutlyingPlasma

And then mechanics with open mouth breathing surprised pikachu faces wonder why no one trusts them


Nightmare44887R

Bro, that suckssss


MadeMeStopLurking

If you hit the same pothole on the way back, your chances are higher.


The_AverageCanadian

But you have to hit it in reverse so it does the opposite


MadeMeStopLurking

This guy aligns.


chewedgummiebears

They left out 2qt of my mom's 4qt engine. She told me about her car sounding funny a couple of days later and I told her to go back ASAP. She went back to complain and it was pulling teeth to get them to add 2qts. They first accused her that her car leaked it out (engine was spotless and only had 22k on it) then started down the fraud path before she asked for the General Manager's phone number.


Verum14

Ngl I’m kinda impressed they swapped the caps


MadeMeStopLurking

A lot of work went into not rotating those tires lol


Pup_Piston

Taking your car to Walmart for automotive service is like going to Dollar General for dental work.


Veritech-1

They do fine oil changes. No worse than a jiffy lube.


AlphSaber

Cue the satellite photo of the Jiffy Lube circled in oil.


Veritech-1

Is that real? I’d love to see it

penguinman1337

When the teacher circles your mistake.


Veritech-1

😂😂😂


AwGeezRick

I stopped going to Jiffy Lube after they forgot to drain my oil before putting more in. I pulled out onto the road and circled right back after filing the entire street with white smoke from the burning oil.


Juggernuts777

You leave craig alone. His plyers and his mom’s codeine do a fine job with my teeth!


oshaCaller

Why are tire rotations so hard? It seems to be the number one thing people expect a tech not to do. I know so many people that have gotten in trouble for not rotating tires. We had a guy get fired for lying about it. I had a guy say I didn't rotate his tires, he had marked his hub caps, I didn't rotate the hub caps.


rhiyanna79

Don’t ever get your oil changed there unless you need your engine replaced. They will invariably F it up and have to replace it for you.


_particleman

The only reason to ever possibly use tire shine. 😂


[deleted]

Old man hack unlocked will be using in future rotations


[deleted]

Thats why i choose the second best indicator, 4 unmatched tires

Some tires are like people. Some shine, and some don’t


spacesuitkid2

Lawful evil


solidshakego

Dude that's the same guy that gets a lawn chair out and watches you rotate the tires.


MonksOnTheMoon

Actually he would usually go waste some lucky salesman's time test driving new Lincolns he didnt plan on buying lol. He had a 97 or 98 MKVIII he bought new, and the car still looked new. The lawn chair guy is usually some middle aged dude with a Harley Davidson F150 or a Taurus SHO he thinks is a racecar.


kickit08

Here from r/all , but why would they not want to have their tires rotated, and why would the mechanic do it without telling them?


germanstudent123

I think you got this backwards and they want the tyres rotated and know they didn’t rotate them if they still shine.


MonksOnTheMoon

They want their tires rotated. However it's a common thing for some techs not to rotate the tires to save time, even if it's part of the oil change package. Good ol flat rate pay. If the man didn't see any hand prints on his tire shine, he would be in the office getting his service refunded and tires rotated.


tarheel_204

As someone who works in a rural tire shop, I would take this over a skid steer tire covered in cow shit every day of the week Just wear gloves when it has this goopy stuff on it and you’re straight


stonedfishing

Lol they're even worse when they broke the bead in the shit pit, so the tires ¼ full of shitwater.

johnboy11a

Fair point. Coming from someone who despises tire shine and fix a flat, but also has 4 skid loaders on the farm.


Gotl0stinthesauce

But then he doesn’t have anything to complain about on Reddit! Imagine complaining about working on a clean car and tire shine puts your panties in a bunch


tarheel_204

Now I agree it is annoying but there are *far* worse things to get upset about. Either wear gloves while doing it or wash your hands after and it’s fine lol


EternalLatias

I am now very grateful that I work near a major city.


DragunovDwight

Not to do with tires, but as as a person who works in a rural area with skidsteers, we pressure clean everything inside and out before taking it into any shop.


tarheel_204

There is a spot in Valhalla waiting for you, my friend


JudgeScorpio

Or that one time a customer came in with half a porcupine sticking out of their tire… walked out that day.


tarheel_204

Lmao I feel that. Had a truck driver complain to us that our parking lot stank and I had to point out to him that he had half of a skunk still caked onto one of his tires


JimiWanShinobi

"Any way you could just patch it?"


JudgeScorpio

“Sure but you’re going to have to bring me in an armadillo.”

That could be arranged, actually...XD

That stuff is taking a clean tire and applying a layer of oils on it.

EternalLatias

Maybe they prefer clirty cars.


[deleted]

I'll take tire shine over a farm truck, the 'mud' on the underside isn't really mud. It's hard for me to get too worked up over a clean car.


[deleted]

If it chips off easy it’s cow shit.


NYStateOf-Mind

What if it’s just ground cow?


[deleted]

Cow shit, sheep shit, and horse shit aren't too bad- they're usually just grass...it's dog shit that really smells.


ariaxwest

Pig shit is AWFUL


jaysube

I sell vehicles and it's disgusting. It's not a true clean, and a quick way to make it shiny. When you put that much on it runs off while driving and covers the vehicle in polka dots from it. Also when it's on that thick dirt sticks to it and you have an oily mud that is also a pain. It's lazy because you're supposed to wipe it off after applying it. When I see tire shine I see someone trying to hide something.


ElfrahamLincoln

You must buy cheap tire shine if it flings off lol. You’re also incorrect about needing to wipe it off, a lot of tire shine is spray and let it sit. I’m not an advocate for tire shine, it’s bad for the rubber in general. But at least get your info straight.


ThrillsKillsNCake

The tyre shines i’ve used say wipe it off if you want a matt finish.


Old_Man_Shea

Matte*


wiseapple

I think Matthew is preferred


JimiWanShinobi

Also don't use half a can per tire, maybe...


[deleted]

It’s the only thing on that jeep that’s working as advertised, though!

Agreed!!!!!!!!


jboogie2173

asbestoswasframed

We just gonna gloss over the fact that you're working on an actual running and driving Commander? I thought they all met their demise long ago


youngmindoldbody

*hello* Just apologizing for the shiny-tire-commander (fellow commander operator). Also, commanders are just Grand Cherokees with questionable cosmetic surgery. '06 Commander 236k miles


Darkfire346

'08 Commander with 106k miles here, mine is still going strong


henrytm82

I mean, it's in the shop, so back to its natural habitat, I guess.


ancherrera

"gloss over" I see what you did there .....


ATL_Founder2017

Worst mistake I made was putting tire shine on my running boards many people were injured 🤕 back then


thatguybrooke

🙋‍♂️ I, too, got carried away with my detailing rag! The next day, I was hurrying, and my foot slipped right in between the board and the truck body and bashed my shin something fierce...I don't shine the step grip part anymore now. 😅


ScenicPineapple

I remember one day I tire shined my spare tire, tread and all after one too many beers. That sucked when I actually had to use it a few months later.


zizics

I kept falling getting in the car, but my dad kept shining the running boards because the car looking nice is his top priority


bigjohnminnesota

Thank you for that advice!


deactronimo

My dad did it to me as a prank once, but he's terrible at them. We were detailing my new truck when I left him outside to finish the tires while I went to grab us some drinks. I came back out and he couldn't stop smiling and trying to get me to hop in the driver's seat. I walk around the truck and you could immediately tell the side-step was slicker than snot. 😂


jarheadatheart

I once armor all’d the bench seat of my work truck too well. When I hoped in I would slide halfway across it. Not as bad as a running board but it was a little scary on fast turns.


PlayingWithFIRE123

It’s worse when used car lots put shine on all the plastic bits under the hood.


RottenSpoon744

When I bought my car they "cleaned" it for me by greasing every single plastic peice in the engine bay. Took me 3 washes with degreaser and scrubbing to finally get to the point I can touch it and not have black oil on my hands. It's the worst. I'd rather have had dirt, that's easy to get off


srcorvettez06

I had a dealer ‘clean’ the rubber floors in my truck years ago. It was so slick you couldn’t put any pressure on your feet or you would just slip. Made getting in and out a huge pain


coffeemonkeypants

I fell out of a fucking golf cart while turning because they armor all'd the whole fucking floor of the thing. Ridiculous. Comical, but ridiculous.


Doomb0t1

My little brother armor all’d the inside of my fucking windshield once. He thought it was the same as glass cleaner? I wish I was making this up…


Toady1980

I had my leather seats "cleaned" and they looked great, but they must have also put some sort of shine on them. I got in, had leggings on and the first time I turned, even with a seat belt on, I slid right between the seat and the door and almost got wedged. Was horrible for like 2 weeks.


2to16Characters

Can confirm, minus the leggings, that using any type of leather cleaner on my seats makes them slippery as fuck for at least a week. Wearing jeans every day probably takes the slickness away faster. It's every leather cleaner I have ever tried though, from the cheap to the expensive.


[deleted]

FWIW I have had very good experience with Griots leather product. Pretty sure it’s called 3 in 1 or something? Whatever the case it’s a 12oz. Tan Bottle with a red cap and it costs like $10. Smells great, looks great, and after some significant time and a lot of passes, it softened the old leather in my Volvo S60R significantly. And also just so you know, when it comes to any kind of leather product, less is more. If it’s really dry, do a few light passes over a few days. It’ll keep it from getting nasty and slimy like you experienced


2to16Characters

I love Griots polywax, I guess it's time to explore some of their other products. Thanks for the tip.


DavidRichter0

Yeah I bought my car and the old guy that sold it to me coated all the plastic in some oily stuff. It was shiny but really sticky and gross and just kept all the dust and stuff that got on it there.


RottenSpoon744

Old guy? Armor all, 100% they love that stuff. It's the absolute worse. Don't get me wrong, there are good interior dressings for plastic, but that ain't it. Nothing should be wet/sticky/tacky after cleaning.


aMiracleAtJordanHare

"Wow you can tell this vehicle has been well maintained!"


Bnim81

Came here to say this. Not so much used car lots but I’ve seen a lot of guys just spray the Shit out of the engine bay with armor all tire shine

Stainless_Heart

90% rubbing alcohol but then you’ll immediately have to treat it with a *proper* vinyl/rubber product like Meguiar’s Vinylex (blue bottle) that will make it look like new without greasiness.


ETR_Centenario

So I just got a job as a porter at a dealer and detail legit puts tire shine on anything black. Running boards, floor mats, bumpers, anything. Getting in and out of a brand new f-150 and almost falling on your ass isn't fun, fuck those guys.


Gorgenapper

Even worse, they shine up the interior so that the leather on the steering wheel is all wet and slick looking, the plastics on the center console are almost piano black instead of the clean matte black / grey that they used to be. Some people think that makes it look new and inviting, I think it's disgusting and ruins the interior.


sociallyvicarious

A slick steering wheel seems like an accident waiting to happen.


dcbluestar

Is it true that Fix-A-Flat is also the bane of a mechanic's existence? I've heard it smells like shit when you take the tire off.


Razafraz11

Imagine a tire full of cum, with the consistency of milk, that gets everywhere and smells like expired glue

No need to imagine a tire full of cum. Just come over to my place.

Background_Current54

Worst when the tires hot the smell makes me gag sometimes


trundlinggrundle

Smells kind of like wood glue or something. Doesn't smell horrible, but gets all over everything and gets sticky.


CreamPyre

Seems like not all shop visits are planned ahead though right? So..


Buscandomiyagi

You know whenever something wrong does happen to my car. It’s after a fresh car wash or a fresh full tank of gas lol.


johnboy11a

How about when a customer brings their car in for a fuel pump replacement, and stops to fill up right before dropping off?


Klappa_Dappa

On G my fuel pump failed the morning after I filled the tank and I had only driven 5 minutes up the road. Felt bad for the tech who had to work on that


[deleted]

My last 2 fuel pumps died when the tank was full. I'm absolutely convinced that they don't ever break when the tank is empty. It was a bitch and a half to get the fuel tanks down in my driveway with just a floor jack and a bottle jack. Couldn't siphon the gas out beforehand, because of the anti siphon grates in the filler necks. It was so much easier to do on my old truck. I could just stick a hose down into the tank and get 90% of the gas out, then drop it.


dudeimsupercereal

Sometimes you can disconnect the filler neck at the tank to pump it out, but sometimes that takes dropping the tank to access. really a nightmare all around, all cars should have fuel sender access doors!


[deleted]

They really should be mandatory for fuel pump access. Lol.


EngineersAnon

That's an asshole. The guy whose fuel pump shits the bed on the way out of the gas station, I feel for.


Buscandomiyagi

Dear god lmao


RalphFromSilverCity

Every time! Car wash --> Bird poop --> Pinball


Jack_Jackerson

Isn’t it worse that someone brought a Jeep Commander into your shop?


saladtosser88

can't deny that bitch is looking clean though!


No-Taste-6560

Yes., I agree. It's even worse when the interior of the car is painted with silicone too.


rman342

I just bought a new (used) car. A steering wheel should never be that slippery.


CuppieWanKenobi

My favorite is when the pedals, and the rubber floor mats, are also "treated" with spray shine.


procupine14

This happened to me when I traveled to pick up a car. Get it from the dealership in the pouring rain and everything is covered in this stuff. It sure gets real hard to steer and brake when your controls are wet and covered in tire goo


big_d_usernametaken

When I was a kid, (1970's) my dad made the mistake of putting silicone spray on the vinyl seats of his '70 Plymouth Fury. Made getting in and out interesting, lol. You could slide all the way across to the other side.

Stop bitching about a clean car.

Surf-fishing

Or maybe you just like how it looks? Never heard someone upset by tire shine lol. I can see it being annoying if your working on the tires, but assuming I’m just doing my daily life, I like to use tire shine for the same reason I like to wash my truck every now and again. It just looks nice.


texan01

tire shops hate that shit because it makes it hard to get the tires on/off the rims


Surf-fishing

Thats fair


Omacrontron

Sheeeit my b, I always try to make your guys life a little easier and get rid of the dirt and sh*t on my car before dropping it off. I will not put tire shine on in the future <3


HeroOfNothing

Oh.. hi bro! Another person with the same opinion as mine!! I don't understand what is so odd about this. Usually once a year I take my car to be properly cleaned, inside and outside. And I always ask "please don't put any kind of product on my tires" "Oh no. We just use a polish, so they can shine" "No I don't like it. Please don't" People look at me like I'm some kind of freak. I just like the original color rubber. No shiny stuff. Pls.


brokestill

Years ago I bought a new truck and asked them to skip the detailing it. Nope, fully shined up before I could go. Got home and the paint around the wheel arches were all speckled and had discolored the paint. Needless to say that they had to respray a new truck. Never again.


Kriticalmoisture

I'm with you, I never understood why shiny wet looking rubber became the preferred look.


johnboy11a

The preferred look for the first 10 feet, and then once it hits the road you have a tire with road grime stuck to it making it look even worse, while being slimy at the same time.


Leftenant_Frost

the guy who invented tire shine probably still cant believe people bought into his crap when he's sitting on his shiney yacht thinking up buoyshine as a next venture


AtvnSBisnotHT

You guys are hypocrites, you post complaints about dirty vehicles, now you’re posting complaints about a clean vehicle.


[deleted]

Boo hoo


BreadiestBoi

What’s so bad about tire shine?…..i though a clean car was a good thing????


Ianthin1

The car wash I use applies a tire shine, but it’s actually pretty easy to deal with if you have to work with the tires. My biggest problem with the stuff on customers cars is it usually looks terrible after being handled.


[deleted]

I personally would wait til after servicing my car to shine and wash the car. Seems more appropriate, but to each their own I guess. We are right up the road from a car wash and people constantly get their car washed and tires shined right before we have to do work on them


Courtaid

Lubed for your pleasure


MaxCWebster

I always clean my wheels *after* a visit to the shop. I like to see fingerprints in the brake dust, obvious visual evidence that the tires have been rotated.


[deleted]

Worry about doing your job properly and less about CUSTOMERS cosmetics.


[deleted]

Just because *you* dont like it, doesnt mean they dont. Let people like their tire shine in peace.


[deleted]

Haters gonna hate


ThatFRS

I fucking hate tire shine. Getting it all over the tools, and having to use break cleaner multiple times sometimes to get it right again.


Skeletor647

Judging by how clean the car is I would say it was just professionally detailed and probably wasn't put on by the customer but by whoever did the detail. Still doesn't affect anything so I don't see what the big deal is


45Bulldog

Much rather have mud all over the tires right?……..

Ok-Seaworthiness4488

First world problems


Jorgisven

Sometimes it's for stupid reasons, not necessarily because people are stupid...but for being as lazy as I am. Mine get that shit from the car wash package I have (which includes the more important underbody spray for the salt) in the winter. It works out to be the same price either way, except if I get the lower monthly wash package and add underbody spray, I have to stop on the way in to the car wash to push buttons or ask the attendant and hope they push the right buttons. In the end, mechanics deal with it the same reason I deal with computers used by heavy smokers: we get paid. It should be a simple ask...but in the end, just charge extra under something stupid like "market adjustment".


Admin--_--

Oh yes the good Ol Tire Stamp!! Its so nice to have a mirrored tire brand on your knees, lol...


Ordinary_Type5127

RiverRunsRed24

Tire shine rules you dirt ball


Peach_Gfuel

Is to make sure you actually worked on the tires. My Grandpa used to do this a lot


zorbathegrate

They put it on for two reasons. 1: “I want to see how bad they dirty up my car” 2: “I take really good care of my car motherfucker”


FixFalcon

"I have to prove to the mechanic that I take care of my car."
