if u could see the paint defect from this light...u must be superman..only he has the super power to do so

BUT sad to say most detailing shop uses this as a guide to swirls & hologram judgement...."Matt Davis, Meguiars Asia consultant once told me......if you cant see, you can correct"...lighting is the most important tool for any detailing

will this work...many will use this lighting to show u .. my cars looks wet & glossy...but is it defect free
