    Cobra Deluxe Jr scratching the finish

    The lamps pretty much enhance any defects you would see in the paint. Have you ever detailed a car and thought "that looks great" just to pull it out into the sun and see haze marks all over the place or that awful look you get when headlights from a car shine on your car.
