    looks great but i like the Avant in the background more :)

    also i always like the shots of Dan / Tommy some times they look posed sometimes they look like they dont notice the (i'm sure) big DSLR in their face.

    amazing work, Phil! I see you are using SV Autobahn on wheels as a primary sealant...I know it's not the cheapest product, but is it worth it? What durability are you getting out of it???

    you're right autobahn isn't cheap but a little goes a long way, it adds depth to the finish of wheels like nothing else we have used.

    as far as protection seems to do good, mostly when you go to wash the wheels the next time, provide you are on top of them. (hope that makes sense its late)

    The stuff works great on clean cars, its not going to remove swirls but its a great 1 step product.

    We recently did a few cars with metallic followed by a sealant or Einszett Glanz.
