oh fair play. just reads like advertisment to me tbh. ergardless of price or how many people on here will buy it. seems to be a shameless plug, especially to state its not an advert at the begining.
my bad for misunderstanding. will it make my car go faster?

I did a render the other day just like that, and was told it was "too perfect to be realistic".
Did you manage to get the orange peel paint in the render?
With a billow noise bump map and triplanar projection, aye.

I just read the thread about that GTR.
He marked a quarter panel and the roof while taking that stuff off, so had to machine polish the marks then apply it again.
I'll stick to my normal wax I think

Start of plenty more PB products then? Results do look pretty good but I have to admit I was pretty shocked by the price tag when I saw it announced the other day lol.
As much as Ultimate Shine's images are good, he is one person I really am not convinced about in regards to untweaked finished pics - a lot of his images are borderline HDR effect and I'm not the only one to have thought / noticed that...

I've noticed that in a lot of 'after' pics on there, mega processed to look shiny but it's very rare anything is said on there.

I'm waiting to see if the Monaco detailing guy is impressed with the results.
There's an idea for your brother Blu, he can start selling matt black spraypaint for £230 a can

There was a thread that kicked off a while back but it got locked iirc in fear of upsetting the paid up members

I'm not into the whole detailing thing, I dont have the patience for it, but I respect that some people are
But I do think that a lot of the photo's have been tweaked, maybe not I'm no expert

tbh Im guessing its more aimed at cleaning professionals and rich amateur detailers rather than your average £3 asda shampoo sort of buyer.

i just feel very let down by the thread title and the threads actual contents. its the worst name for some spit and shine ive ever heard of.
i was expecting some mental project car. not some soap and a bucket.
feel let down a lot.
