and a couple close up photos to make it easier to see all the particles of junk on the paint
here's the before, and the blue tape shows that before I got started the car was washed, then rewashed, and there was this much crap stuck to the paint. Then I put the tape down, sprayed that detail spray before hitting it with this Mothers Speed Clay 2.0
it has no clay, it's got a rubbery surface that somehow srcubs the particles of stuff right off the paint, like clay does, but FASTER! Without clay sticking to my hands.
above, no contrast ... below, hit with photoshop auto contrast to enhance how crazy much crap was on the paint, and how much was quickly removed
and to rule out a variance of lighting I rotated the camera a full 90, then 10 degrees
because I hate fake tests I go a bit overboard to prove how legit what I am doing is. Just removing all doubt
a bit of contrast makes that crud stand out
above without any photo shop, show that the sun had set
and its easier to see the side by side comparison toward the bottom of the photo
after I did the entire bumper, you can now see the uniform clearer paint, but compare the clean bumper that has been scrubbed compared to the hatchback
which is also visibly dirtier, even though it was washed by hand twice
so, I heartily recommend you use this cool new gadget. It costs about 20 bucks,
That's amazing. I'll have to get one to try on my truck.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip, Jesse. I have a lot of contaminants in the paint on our Durango, but I didn't want to mess with a clay bar. I'll have to try this.
