    Kartoon explained this phenomenon last year. Since this event always takes place on the hottest day of the year, camera lenses are adversely affected by the high temperatures. This warping of the glass elements causes everyone photographed to appear 20 pounds heavier than they are in real life.

    Re: Poorboy`s World Detailing Weekend

    Amazing time .

    I posted my full response in the other thread, so here are my select pictures.



    The main setup



    Beercan31`s test panel complete with overspray, spray paint spots, heavy contaminants, swirls, etc.


    After a group effort with clay, wetsanding (2000, then 3000), Poorboy`s Pro Polish with the wool pad on the rotary at 1700-1900 rpm x 2 , Poorboy`s Pro Polish with the final finising pad via rotary at 1200-1500 rpm x 2, PwC Blue by hand, Natty`s Blue by hand spit shined with Spray and Gloss. It could`ve used another pass with the polish as there was some spot marring here and there but I think our group effort showed what could be done with bad paint.


    Steve`s painted hood decal on his van


    jaybs95`s CLEAN Taurus


    Deanski after removing PwC blue


    Last, but certainly not least, my girlfriend, Liz, on the rotary .

    Sorry I missed out this year. I remember last year it was the hottest day of the summer.

    Re: Poorboy`s World Detailing Weekend

    Oh yea it was damn hot! You can see it in the color of my face!

    That picture of the SC430 was EX-P and Natty`s from LAST YEAR! OK, it`s garaged and does not see rain, but it still looked good except for the light swirls from Splash car wash.. What can I say? I have little time lately....

    The Nattys Blue... Now I can say for those that don`t want to fork over big $$ for Souveran, give the blue a try! It does have a similar effect like Souveran in a deeper color than regular Nattys which is more clear and bright.

    The new blue polish also does a very good job! Just too bad I could not find all my pads and MF towels as they are in storage. Even with a blue finish pad, the polish worked very well.

    I wish I was there Saturday!! Missed a bunch of you guys from last year!

    I hope those that took pics will post some more soon.

    Steve, you and me both were suffering from the heat!

    One day, we DO need to have a picnic just to relax and shoot the breeze on what everyone is doing. I think it may result in a better discussion on how to improve on any one product.

    As for the Enzo to arrive, my investment friend cried it was too hot! Yea like he was going to even look at my rotary to do any work! I hope he doen`t sell it so next time I can schedule him to bring it.

    At least on the way home there was no terrible accident like I witnessed on my way to the site.

    Take care guys/gals, and keep the pictures coming!
