First attempt at a 'beading' shot of the car....

I managed to clay, polish and wax the car yesterday and, of course, it rained overnight and this morning so I took this photo of the droplets of water beading off the car. First attempt at this with the new camera so may have to try some more later (it's still raining here!)..... Sad

not the best angle for the beading shot and the rain will have carried dust/dirt partials to the panel and could have effected beading too

As long as your happy Thumbs Up

Heres mine beading after a coat of Gtechniq C1.5
