First off, i do not have any before pics because i didnt have my camera on me

i only took some after pics of the exterior only

Anyways enjoy!

This was my first ever detail with a machine i used the Megs MF DA system on a GG6

Washed with Meguiars ultimate wash
clayed with GG Clay and Speed shine lube
Dried with absorber

looks nice but i never understand why people have to enhance the pictures... it takes away the whole actual "picture" of the true detail... just my opinion.
 
Because the regular pictures were more dull and plain looking, the paint looks immaculate in person under the sun, i just adjusted a little contrast and blacks to some of the pictures i can post a differece between edited and non edited so u can see, i didnt do it to hide any paint defects or anything, just edited a little so the color pops even more after its first true detail ;)
 
Here is an example of before and after edit...

Besides lol me being a wedding/event photographer its in my nature to edit photos so i just had to!

Did you use the dog as a washmitt? Or just a helper?lol
 
neither lol my mom just threw him in the picture so i added him :)
 
Looks great. Meguiar's has a nice line of products. I've always liked their stuff.
 
i love meguiars its all i ever used when i buy OTC stuff from autozone
 
Unedited pictures are much better then the ones you 'adjusted'

Im sure you know you just changed the color completely in the "edit". It went from its true color to a red. I have no problem with editing, but for detailing..... i think its absurd. Im sure there were angles where you could of stood from to capture good reflections and the true color.... just sayin.
 
As i said, it was just a habit since im a photographer,

Next time i wont edit some pics, but for now enjoy :) it was just to show how amazing the color is, btw, in the sun it loooks just like it does in the edited photos, it was cloudy mixed with sunn thats why i did that

But for now, enjoy! :)
 
You did a very nice job on that Honda. And, my eyes like the enhanced pictures. Look what musicians do to their music to make it more appealing to people who listen to it when they're detailing.
 
Lookin good. I love Habbi coupes. I owned one myself when they first came out.
