.....Japanese Sushi for this time round... smile_clown.gif smile_clown.gif smile_clown.gif

Anyway, here's a couple of beading pics. The pictures are terrible but these are the best that I can get with my phone, but I think you guys can imagine/get a rough idea how it really looks (this time, I really wished I had a decent DSLR with proper macro lens.... smile_disapprove.gif smile_disapprove.gif ) Maybe during the upcoming TT somebody can bring over a proper camera to get better pictures..... smile_sleepy.gif smile_sleepy.gif smile_sleepy.gif





Tried as I may, I just couldn't get a decent size beading. A little larger then they just rolled off. I also wished that I can record the sheeting action and post it up here. But, it's very much similar to those sheeting videos in Autodetailer's web.

ps: Some poison - check out the *almost* straight line reflection of the beam guys....you guys should really seriously think about the possibility of leveling out the paint a little....HAHAHAHA......


Lucky your paint at the bottom of the CC is quiet flat. If not wont be so nice. Sushi this time. Suppose to last how long ah?

a tip to capture good focus image of water beads or anything on the paint is to have ur finger on the paint for the camera to focus, then remove the finger and snap away.


It's easy when you know how...

hmmm...I guess you're right there. Looking at those pics again, they do looked more like it's focused on those *almost perfectly* straight lined beam reflections instead of the water beads..... tongue.gif tongue.gif tongue.gif

Focus first, but finger must still be on the camera button, when the focusing finger is removed..... smile_tongue.gif
