Great work.
Proper polishing is the key. I use the same camera, however soetimes I do auto on the before pictures. Manual afterwards, but sometimes I do take them on Auto mode as well.

Great work as always!
This looks exactly like Nautical Blue which is a color that Hyundai offered only on the 2006 Santa Fe. Very few were sold and it was introduced late in an already short model year.
2010 Hyundai Santa Fe - Harbor Gray
Even sometimes I, in a moment of what could only be described as pure sanity, question the rationality of this obsession.

Thanks guys!
After re-reading my original post, it might seem like I am insinuating that you are playing with the photos. That is NOT what I meant by the post. I just meant the transformations were great. Sorry if that cam off the wrong way.

Reminds me of Indigo Ink Pearl they used on RX300's a few years ago.. always loved that color... great job!
"One day you will have to stop being a Muppet...So take the hand out of yer butt and walk for yourself."
Claying does not mean "High end". It means quality/caring. So would actually learning a trade instead of "Hey I can wash and wax a car, so I'ma gonna be a detailer."

Jared - I know what you meant. I was just being a smart a$$.
Thanks everyone!
While working on the car I had a feeling that for the first time I am not making a difference look wise as the color once it was washed "looked" pretty good. But after stepping away from it for a few minutes to pack up my stuff I say the changes. Very nice color indeed.
