Re: What is it about Flourescent lighting?!?

What is it about Flourescent lighting that causes you to see this? I had a black car before this and it was a NIGHTMARE to look at it under Flourescents. Is it the spectrum of light or the frequency of Flourescent lighting?

Is this something I should be worried about or does everyone else experience the same thing when they examine their car under flourescents?
Exodar,
It's scary but you took the words right out of my mouth. I have a silver car also, have been using the best quality MF and cotton cloths, have AIO and 3 layers of SG but everytime I look at the car in the garage, which has fluorescent lighting, I see scratches and marring that makes me ill. Sometime I'm think it's a losing battle to try and maintain the paint. I HATE fluorescent lighting
