Show and Shine Contest!

[[email protected]]

This year is definitely going to be exciting for this forum. So exciting that I’m going to get this first show and shine started with a bang!

That’s right! Post up your most recent and best show and shine and you could win this:

:rockonNo, you’re not hallucinating. That is the limited edition DoDo Juice Skull Candy. This was something that was going to be saved for my personal collection, but I’m passing this on to you!

So let’s see what you’ve got.

Rules are pretty simple; post at least 5 pictures of your favorite details. Whether it is a past or current detail, it just needs to be done by you, and meet the picture minimum.

The winner will be selected by me, on March 25th, 2011 Good luck!

I'll admit this wasn't an all out polish job - But this is my truck, done in Prima Amigo topped with Prima Banana Gloss.

I think this is my best simply because of the super hard Imron paint, http://www.detailcity.org/forums/de...4-ford-f-450-pl-customs-rescue-ambulance.html

I'll enter again - "Remembered" an old online photo album that had this in it.

This was a before of the engine - the entire car pretty much looked like this.

Let's keep in mind I am by no means a professional photographer, nor do I take a lot of pictures when I do any kind of clean up or detail.

IMHO light colored cars are the most difficult to really show off a reflective shine.
I have to say in the case of the Accord you have some real nice gloss going on.
I don't know if it's the Natty's, the Fusion or the combo of using both. Good job!

I might agree, but I would have to see the original UN-ENHANCED PICS

I might agree, but I would have to see the original UN-ENHANCED PICS

If you still question the pics, notice the lack of watermarks as well as the sun glare in one or two. Enhancements made were to clarity & brightness/darkness. Nothing else. The work speaks for itself.

And for the critic here ......... UN-ENHANCED PICS.
