    Any and all money that I find while cleaning a customer's car gets placed in a small ziplock bag and placed in an obvious place in the vehicle... Usually it surprises them and they tip me but some look at it and thank me then go on their way... I would never keep a customer's money that was...

    I use this method a lot! I have been using the AA TF trick for a few years on my quick details... it works great but for the more in depth details I do scrub them and then spray a matte engine detailer on them... looks a bit better IMHO...
