    BTW


    do you really need to invest in a very expensive camera to do photo shoot during car detailing or are you a DESKTOP photographer who spent hours in Photoshop-ping


    No offense the usual camera we usually use is the most affordable off the shelf available....when the detail is right & done correctly everything will be picked up


    needless to use any expensive stuff to cover it or bring it up




    PICTURE saves all the say






    with full of Dermatology issue

    how can one go and not cared for such an issue




    when the pre-clear coat days (1K paint) usually requires a lot of care and attention, as it is easily stained or oxidizes.........so
    the older generation driver endedd up with alot of waxing job to maintain a good health on their car paint, something they will do on special occasions to provide a little extra shine.but actually something that should be done on a regular basis.


    now with the Clear coat (post Era) lesser effort requires to maintain a good and healthy paint, as it has a protective coat against wear and tear, still many had the misconception (treating their ride like BULLET PROOF). No No mentality!!!!!!

    The exterior of your car needs regular care as well. While neglecting the paint job may not lead to mechanical performance issues, it will result in a lower resale value, just like if you never changed your oil or got a tune up.

    what / where to avoid
    - Road side car wash -
    - Parking under tree (saps)
    - carefree parking (as where and when you like) only inviting abuser to scratch your car
    - partial roofing - tiles wash down stains
    - construction area (misty debris and paint sand blasting to your car) or chemical blow over
    - leaking roof - avoid mineral deposit aka permanent deposit


    what to do
    weekly wash
    montly wax / or get it coated for permanent protection
