10 year old Lexus (1st time using xmt 360)

I did this Lexus that is a D.D. and is parked outside 24-7. I was very impressed with the xmt 360 which I used for the 1st time. Here was the process:
Exterior:
wash
clay with clay magic and 425 as lube (1st time using; better than soap/water imo)
xmt 360
topped with collonite for extra protection

Exposure is a bit off (I'm one to talk, right?

) in the afters so it is hard to tell how much improvement you got, but the flake is popping out very nicely.

I wasn't too happy with the shots once I downloaded them, but too late then. I had set the camera for 2.8 aperture and for bright sunshine..it should have worked..oh well

You actually should have been between F/8-F/16.

Looks good though

i chose the lower number b/c i wanted it to be blurry in the background and in focus on the car
