Altho I don't own a black SVT I figured I would enter this contest. Here is 1FASTDADS SVT after I waxed it.

For this last picture yes I decided to wax the wheels

Posted By: Dakmis Re: Did someone say reflection shot contest? - 05/15/06 05:17 AM
for that reflection... lets see if i can remember. that was from last summer.

full clay + wash using meguires gold class soap as lube
3m compound via portercable with 6" cutting pad
3m glaze via portercable with 6" cut/finish pad
then glazed again with pc and finish pad
and finally meguires #26 by hand

works really well. as my car was in really good condition to start with more work might be needed be it more compounding or application via roteray to get desired effect. happy waxing

~Alex
Not a Contique or dark colored, I naturally meet competition head-on...

These pictures are before I clayed the hood....






Here are two of Allen's SVT (BuddyPalumbo):






My current Liquid Grey ZX3:











My old Malibu Blue ZX5:

Love the rims....PM me the price and place of purchase...if they're light enough i may have found new rims.....
How about a Desert Violet Pearl shot? The reflection is actually better than the camera shows.


Shine is easy. Swirl free is hard.
not on new cars

Shiine is easy on any car. 97 Explorer that had been unwaxed for 100k miles after I waxed it. Looks shiney, but lots of swirls:


Dealership "detailer" swirled (and scratched) the hell out of my paint. No time to take them out yet.

Edit:
I wont mention any names, but I've seen an SVT that looks in pictures, but seeing it firsthand it's terribly swirled.
Eh no black CSVT but a Teal Mystique.
The first one is better then the second one.

I 2nd that. Wish I had a close up of my dad's old 99 SHO it was black, he got that thing mirror shinny, looked just like a mirror.

Edit: this is the best pic I have of the car.



He used to be able to get that car wicked shinny.

...in the daytime!

We lighties look MUCH better at night IMO.
I agree, we tend to look great under bright lights at night!
Posted By: Snipey Re: Did someone say reflection shot contest? - 05/16/06 12:02 AM
These may be considered cheating since im not reflecting off my paint...(sail panel btw) but ill add em anyway. if i ever find my camera ill try to get some real ones.






-i like how it says contour in the middle of it
.Snipey
My personal favorites.

Who says red cant reflect good? My car isnt really a good example of it either..

Just a week old:


Add a year or two:




And the most recent:
The contour


not the best pic but the evo
some shiny lookin cars in here but I don't see a single babe reflecting in any of those reflections.
Posted By: Pre98 Re: Did someone say reflection shot contest? - 05/16/06 02:03 AM
Meh, what the hell:








if it stop raining, id get better shots. I detailed my car for a professional to do a photoshoot but thats when it started raining

No one said that, Tred is one of the better reflecting colors out there...
I have tons of pictures of my car but no closeups for reflections besides this one. Oh well, still hot.

After polishing, before wax. You can see the dust everywhere from the 3M polish I was using.

Did someone say something about RED!







Posted By: Augi Re: Did someone say reflection shot contest? - 05/17/06 07:58 AM
If I had known about this sooner, I would have got better shots, but it should be nice..... Dark cars don't have all of the fun...





And yes, before anyone says anything... They ARE focus wheels. I'm looking for new Focus wheels.
Posted By: MrFord Re: Did someone say reflection shot contest? - 05/18/06 02:45 PM
Well, that is not worthy of your pictures, but still...



Gonna have to take some pics of the Mystique and the SVT soon...

The black one was his old E1, he just bought a Turbo 3l from someone on the board. That car is Silver.

Hehe.. its shoe polish! does the trick every time!

That is my old ride at the peak of her existence. Kremit is sporting her now, gonna give her the 3L she always deserved!

Those were my favorite tires to date.. the Pole Position SO2s were stickier than the SO3 PP's I had afterwards.. slightly less road noise too. overall, a better tire than its predecessor, but a shame I can't find them any more!

Thanks, all. I'll snap some pics of the Sil-Fro this weekend. She's undergoing a complete detail of interior, exterior and engine; plus some engine work!

Not my car.... well, kinda.
