OK so I love my Performance White baby, and I've absolutely been a fiend about keeping it clean and only using Zaino and microfibre on the paint, double bucket washing it etc.

The paint is in SUPER condition with NO swirl marks, not ONE...but how do I get that accross in pictures???

It's hard enough to show people in person, but in pictures...


I went from having a black car that made you look like a hero if you took care of it, but white. It's so underapprecaited.

To make sure you keep the "white" in the picture, you can use a grey card. Basically it is a piece of cardboard that is 18% grey. They are really cheap. It tells the camera what tone to set. The camera tries to make everything 18% grey. So if you tell the camera what 18% grey is, then it can take a picture that shows the white better.

This only works if you have a camera where you can set the exposure. You figure out what the exposure would be for the grey card in the same light the car is in. Then you set the exposure for that and remove the card. Then take a picture of the car.

 

Hey thanks for the tip Chris I'll have to be trying that .
