My first true spring detail this year, washed with 1Z Perls, used 3M FI-IIIMG with PC7424, GEPC and P21S. The wheels have Klasse AIO and SG. It's much shinier upclose and my attempt at photography :D

Looks like there is alot of depth. Camera's sometimes aggrivate me, they either make someones crappy work look good or someone's hard work look just like an everyday detail.



The drivers door in the 2nd picture shows the depth of the shine.

The camera is unpredictable, it's a Canon A70 3.2 pixel and the viewfinder differs from the 2" color screen too. It serves the purpose, but definitely not made for fine photography!
 
Detail looks great! House ain't bad either :).



You will have to play around with your camera settings and lighting outside to get where you want. I've had mine for 1.5 years and am still playing.
 
Nice wheels and house.



I really like P21S and GEPC. I detailed a friend's car with the combo this weekend and he loved the depth of shine.
 
Very nice. I use a similar combo on my wife'd silver TT. I agree the results are astounding. Great job!!!
 
A trick I do with my Nikon 3500 is getting close to the car so the black paint tricks the camera into focusing on the reflections in the car. Also, the white balance will take the blackness into account that way.



Often, black objects get "black dog syndrome" from auto cameras. Our black cat is like a hole in any picture she's in, unless she takes up most of the frame.



With those tall buildings, I'd get the car on the sunny side and use the gridlike brick pattern to show off the curves in the car. Most pictures of my car come at sunset when the neighbor's house has my car in the shade but my house in in the sun, then the house gets reflected in my paint really well.

Thanks for the advice Postwood, your right about black as it gets tricky to capture the real beauty in it. It was a very overcast day, so no blue sky to show off either :D And thanks everyone for the TT and house comments, I'm getting decent with the PC too:D

membim, are you on the audiworld. com's TT forum too? It's a fun car with no storage! I can barely fit 2 bags of golf clubs :D
