    Hi DB

    I have customer who is interested in a enhancement detail, we both agree on 50% defect removal. The car is very contaminated, it never seen a clay and always at the tunnel wash. I wished I had more time with it but the owner needs the car back by 3 pm and I got started after I drop him off at work at 10 am. Total 5 hrs :(

    Looks like some very nice work!

    This might just be me, but I don't like detailing videos. They take up a lot of time (both yours and mine) and they'll never tell the story as well as photos do. They are small in size, and you'd have to stop and pause the video or rewind it if you want to spend some more time on a certain part.

    Now, if you have a detailing video which shows your in motion and doing work on the car, that's a different story. But a movie that's a slideshow, sorry, it's not for me.

    ^^ thoughts of a slideshow with some clips in it?


    Frank, the reflections in the after part of the video are sick. Nice work.

    videos are same as photos to me, it takes the same amount of time as resize photos, upload to PB, copy and paste in on write up.

    for videos I just drag photos or video to iMovie and select a audio track. upload to youtube. A lot less manual labor :)
    also customers like videos vs photos, they don't really wanna know the boring stuff....
