I play a nice person on twitter.
If you read the link, it's pretty obvious that this was the first detailing AFTER the owner had been driving it for awhile.

I did read the link, all of it and looked at every picture. The detailer classified most of the items as factory blemishes, the exception being the cat scratches.If you read the link, it's pretty obvious that this was the first detailing AFTER the owner had been driving it for awhile.
I have no idea what you want me to say. I laid out some fairly factual statements:My point being that 17 hours for a full detailing is not that out of line, especially when cat scratches are involved. Also keep in mind that the detailer has plenty of reason to show off his skills here - and some of it might have been pushed. And you don't know that the owner didn't try waxing and cleaning the car himself, before realizing he was causing damage.
Your posts seem pretty conclusive, but I just don't see where you're getting the info.
If you're concerned regarding your own car, then I'd ask my local detail shop to have someone go with me before taking delivery.
So, yes, "tons". 17 hours is tons of work.
I have no idea why I'm being jumped on about it.
I guess I can retract the word "tons" and say "I'm rather disappointed in these defects given what I'd thought Tesla was trying to achieve".
Your various notes are certainly all plausible. I have limited actual data points. I can see the car and I know what the detailer's opinion of the defect source were. Now, there are many other plausible possibilities, but I have zero data to support any of them so they didn't really factor into my subjective impression of the situation.It isn't clear that there is a reason to be disappointed at all:
