Stop using impact drivers on cable clips, you're cracking the panels
I counted 14 cracked siding panels on one house last month in Columbus, all from a guy running his impact on full blast. Clips are meant for a hand ratchet or a drill on low, anything else and you're just asking for callbacks. The homeowner even pointed at it and said, "is that supposed to be like that?" Has anyone else seen the same damage from impact guns on vinyl?

Wait, are you sure it was the impact wrench and not the guy using those long self-tapping screws that are too long for the clip?
I've seen more cracked vinyl from overdriving the screw head than the tool itself.
