This reminds me of the Barrett Jackson auction. Most of their cars are swirled up and sold for tons of money.

Wow, really. I watch those all the tome on Speed HD and Discovery HD on a 50" LCD 240hrz and they always look so good. I guess they use some special lighting to make them look more perfect than they truly are. Always looking for swirls though when I watch and I have seen some 6 figure cars swirled up.
 
I watch those Auctions on my 42'' LCD in 1080i and in many of the cars, I can see the swirls when they do the close-up "panning" shots if you know what I mean.
 
Yea, that's true, and they'll show shots of the cars coming in the doors from the outside and there waiting are guys with towels like a tunnel wash. The ones I see are using microfibers but no QD or anything, just wiping as fast as they can. One show it was raining and for some reason the cars had to come in the building and go about 2 feet through the rain.
 
Looks as bad as Guy Fieri's (Diners, Drive-ins and Dives) Camaro. Every time I watch that show and they show his car in the sun, I cringe.



BTW, Joe-contact the producers of Entourage and see if you can get those nasty swirls out of Drama's black Lincoln.
 
I saw that Camaro in person at SEMA looked terrible. There were a lot of really poorly polished cars at the show, and a lot of people who didn't know much of anything. I call these people "triple p" that stands for "piss poor performers".

I saw that car and MOST at the show were in horrid shape. I was shocked at the mothers polish, they went around on the last day and gave awards to the top cars for shine. There was a car with rids everywhere with an award!



Cheers,

These two were the WORST! Check out the shoddy work on the Camaro. And, no, the hood is not open.

It's a shame! Unfortunately, I guess (to the novice), a shiny car is a beautiful car.

But...I know many shiny cars that are swirled, too. Apparently Mothers was giving out their awards only for "shine", and not for "Shiny and defect-free finish".

Err, actually I can't get the words to come out right :mad:. Anyone know what I'm getting at?
