and even after being warned that abrasives will hide everywhere possible , well they still put back the heads on the bike without taking them apart for final cleaning, and guess what, they tried to blame me a while later because they had to strip the motor apart for a rebuild.
i am doing an engine case today and i told the customer that i m am not responsible for him leaving the bearings in

You're so right. Since the beginning I've had that disclaimer. It's crazy to polish without disassembly. You won't believe this, but I had a guy send me a whole 250cc 4-wheeler engine to polish...the heads and jugs were off, with the pistons and rods sticking out of the case. After making sure he was warned, I polished the stuff and did my best to protect the inside of the crankcase. I told him to at least flush it out...never heard from him after I sent the parts back.
