Hi everyone! It’s been a little while since I last posted, just soaking up all the info and I think I’ve managed to achieve a fairly decent result; however I would like your input on it. Sorry about the lack of before pictures.



Process:



Wash: Meg’s Gold Class

Clay: Meg’s Quick Clay

Polish: Meg’s Step 1 & 2

Glaze: Meg’s Mirror Shine No. 7

Sealant: Autoglym Super Resin Polish

Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection (x2)

Wax: P21S (2x)

QD: Meg’s Quick Detailer

Tyres: Meg’s Endurance Tyre Shine

Glass: Autoglym Car Glass Polish



Here are some photo’s of the work, it took about 8 hrs and 30 mins the next day for the extra coat of P21S. :faint:

I'm talking about the clarity, almost no noise, excellent focus...

That's probably b/c even though the images are only 800x600, they are quite large in file size and therefore, don't show any compression artifacts.

some of those images are between 400kb-500kb.

If the images were compressed to a more manageable 90kb-100kb, they would show the noise you're refering to.



BTW, great job on the car! :)
 
Thanks for all the kind words! :clap:



The camera I was using is a Sony Cybershot DSC-F717 (5 megapixels). The originals also have hardly any noise (considering its JPG) but the camera's autofocus is out of this world in my oppion, however maual focus is present when auto gets it a little out.



The bonnet and boot were shot using a 15 second exposure and I closed both at around the 8 second mark.



Thanks again for all the comments, hope my next set will be better than this though!
 
Excellent work! The paint looks really wet. :drool:



Those last two double exposure shots are really outstanding! :bow
