Nikon N60 with Kodak's High Definition Film. I've been playing around with the exposure settings because when the light in the background is brighter than what I am shooting at, the background is washing out a bit. I think I am going in the right direction though....;)

Hi Scott:



Do you use a polarizing filter with your camera?
 
Superlatives do not do justice to your work Scott. The standard of work by a small group here is simply outstanding and their customers are VERY, VERY lucky, but you are in a class of your own. Dare I make an assumption that the exhaust outlets of the Jag look .....dirty?!

Scott,



Awesome work as always...:bow



My neighbor has really dirty leather seats. How exactly do you apply the woolite water mixture?

I mix up 6 parts water to 1 part woolite in a 32 oz spray bottle. Liberally spray down the leather, scrub if necessary with a small plastic bristle brush then wipe dry with a clean towel.



termigator-No, the filters I had left from my Minolta don't fit. I'm playing with the adjustment they suggest if the background is brighter than the subject.



teamvegas-the lens is a Tamron AF28-80mm F/3.5-5.6 Aspherical. I also have a Tamron AF75-300mm F/4-5.6 Macro 1:3.9 lens.



mickg-yeah, I didn't notice until after I took the pic and at that point I only had two shots left. Yes, I did wipe them down. :)
 
Mike-I saw the SC430 today when I was washing their Escalade and H2. It had only been driven once, that day in fact since I was washing her Escalade and she had to pick up her kids from school. Even in the bright afternoon sun, the paint still looked very deep and liquid. :)



Even better, when she gets home with the kids, they immediately remove all their junk from whichever vehicle they exit. :up

I'm sure it is but I'll never know. Those are my customer's cars. You can make a decent living detailing but I can't envision having $150,000 worth of cars any time soon. :p



Beason-I use a fingernail brush. Maybe about 3" long and 1" wide with a small handle and plastic bristles.



Similar to this but a little smaller:

Scott, what do you think about the new Meguiars interior brush? or this one from CMA

The Meguiar's brush is nice but too large. You can't get into corners with it. It is perfect for floor mats and cargo areas in SUVs though.



The CMA brush looks pretty good. Honestly, you can find the fingernail brushes at any grocery, drug or general merchandise store for a few bucks.

I have that! One for vinyl and the other for leather. They work great - gentle, yet effective and durable.



As ususal, nice work Scott! :xyxthumbs
