Time Lapse Video Detailing My 2015 Acura TLX

Last Friday afternoon I had sometime to get a good detail in after (hopefully) the worst of the winter weather. It needed a little polish due to some water sports that had developed over the last few weeks. Then as always topped with some protection. I had purchased a GoPro about a week ago for my up coming vacation and have really enjoy playing around with it. The time lapse feature has to be my feature thing to use. So anyhow enough with the chatter... I set it up while I detailed my car Friday. I really thought it looked cool and wanted to share. :xyxthumbs:

I appreciate the kind words! :xyxthumbs:

Thank you guys!

I had to change the battery once. You get about 3 hours on average per battery when doing a time lapse. I believe a picture was taken every 5 minutes... However I am not 100% sure (Can't remember the exact setting). The GoPro has a bunch of times you can use (seconds up to minutes). I started at about 1pm and ended around 7pm.
