Clean cars

I love a clean car. I believe some of it is how the picture is taken though. I was at a car detailer yesterday and I noticed he had the customers inspect the cars in a florescent light area. Out in the natural day light some of the deep color looked washed away.

That is the exact reason why you want a good set of halogen lights for detailing. There is no way to truly see what the defects in the paint are, even in bright sunlight. I have a 1000w set, they are hot but show every flaw.

I had a light colored suv and thought my paint was in great shape until I saw it under the halogens. That convinced me I needed to invest in the Porter Cable!
