We have 50+ images, but I find it too complicted to post the pics here on the forum myself, that is why Brent posted the ''Scam Repairs'' topic for me.
Nice work Roo, well done -glad to see that you're using the UV-dome.
And man, we sure love the skies over there at your end, sun shine is so much better than rain and clouds!

Those pictures are deceiving I wouldn't want potential customers to see them.
The before pictures are focused on the chip and the after pictures are focused in the distance
they are definitely good repairs but we all know they didn't make the chip disappear.
I think people looking for repairs may end up on this site and I wouldn't want them to expect a miracle.
I'm not criticizing you Roo,just making a point.
Keep up the good work.

I think it is a good example of how those damages should come out.

Yep, I noticed the same focal point issue.

I took over 5 pictures of the finished repairs and these showed the remaining blemish best. If I had a better camera perhaps I could have controlled the focal point better. I explain to my customers up front about what to expect so if there is a surprise it is usually a good one!
Maybe next time I will draw an arrow on the screen pointing to the damage and that would concentrate the focus on the blemish. I am open for photo tips if anyone has some.

coins work well, they also give you a size perspective. keep it in the same place on the shield for both before and after pics.

Roo,
With that kind of quality, I would let you work on my vehicle anytime sir. Also with that quality you certainly have one element cover to compete in the WRO. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Brian! However, as others have stated the camera does a poor job of showing the remaining blemish. I tried taping a dime right beside the repaired area and that definitely portrays the results more accurately. Thanks for the tip Sunshine WR!
