Saw a guy at Cars and Coffee use a dish sponge on a $200k Porsche and nobody said a word

I was at the local Cars and Coffee meet last Saturday in Aurora and this dude pulls up in a brand new 911 Turbo S. Out comes a bucket of soapy water and a yellow Scotch-Brite sponge from the kitchen aisle at Walmart. Swear to God he started scrubbing the hood in circles like it was a casserole dish. I stood there watching for a full minute and not one person walked over to stop him. I wanted to say something but it was his car and I didn't want to start a fight. But come on guys, that sponge has a scrubby side that will absolutely destroy clear coat. Ive spent way too much time and money on proper microfiber mitts and two bucket methods to see that kind of thing. Has anyone else witnessed this level of negligence at a meet and just had to bite their tongue

Feel that pain man, sometimes you just gotta stand there and watch the horror show play out in slow motion. I've definitely had to bite my tongue at meets before too, it's rough.

That blue scrub pad side is like sandpaper on clear coat.

@amy_craig28 nailed it, that scrubby side is pure clear coat murder.
