For now, focus on improving your pictures. Don`t be afraid to take pictures in the sun. And don`t be afraid to take an entire round of shots with the lens nearly hitting the paintwork. It`s all about the details, right?



Here`s a sticky on photography from the very C&B forum you posted in.

I hope that helps. :)

There is always rooom to improve, and most times you need to be self aware to do it. Products are less important then procedures. Figure out how to be more efficient with the amount of product used, or how to work faster.



Looks pretty good from the pictures. Close-ups tell the real story tho.

Oh, didn`t notice this before but 1500 rpm is way too high for Final Polish. Any type of finishing should be done below 1200 rpm and preferably 1000 rpm or lower (Makita starts at 600). There`s a good chance you have some holograms, now. Hard to see on silver but there should be a couple.
