    Very low miles M3, used mostly on the track. Maybe up for sale, (the car is in like new condition) and a show was coming up yesterday. Detail was done friday night, started around 6:30pm. Couldn't get better pictures, as it was after 9:30 when I took these.


    Process:
    3D Pink Coap
    HD Nano Clay Towel
    3D Touch
    HD SPEED
    HD DA Polisher
    HD Green foam pad


    There were 3 isolated scratches that the owner wanted gone, one was removed 2 were too deep. Used HD UNO and Micro Fiber pads

    Thanks Max! Last Xmas I realized that I needed a better camera and I was introduced to MU43 cameras. My main one is a Lumix G3, (use with a 14-140mm lens now) but a few weeks ago I bought a second body for my 20mm 1.7 lens ( I hate changing lenses) - that is what I used here, an Epl1. These are just Jpegs out of the camera, but that epl1 is known as one of the sharpest in the Olympus line up. Except for the new OMD. The 20mm lens is also a very good lens, so that helps. I am about to pull the trigger on Lightroom 4 though.
