How about any job you Paid Good Money for someone to repair! Then later you find, You need to either, redo it, readjust it, tighten some bolts, or replace nuts or bolts or screws so they all Match!

On removing the undercoating without a rotisserie:
my 74 GTS had been throughly Ziebart undercoated everywhere.  I spent months (just a few hours a week though) on my back, wearing a hair net and goggles and a mask, with a wire wheel on a grinding too, ripping away the undercoating.  it came off in little rubber balls, that went EVERYWHERE.  And if I went to fast, it heated up and started to melt, making molasses out of everything but not coming off.  My walls were coated with the stuff.  The first time I worked on it, i did not wear a hair net and my scalp was full of little rubber bb's.  that WAS pretty bad.  Windshield was more acutely painful and frustrating, though in my opinion.
