Hey guys, I recently bought a Nikon D3200 and just had to detail my car. For the detail I used CG Wet Mirror Finish glaze, Jetseal 109 and Blueguard. I will let the pics do the talking!

I really like it. I'm not that good with it, but the camera is fairly forgiving. I highly recommend it.

Take lots of pics and learn to use other settings on the camera, much more fun to take it off automatic.

If you ever need any tips, suggestions or help with your photography, feel free to PM. I trained with a guy that was a photographer for 30+ years, and now have my own photography business.

You made the first big step....choosing a Nikon over a canon! :D:p

I did a lot of research prior to purchasing. The Nikon was just so much better in every way.

That photoshoot location you chose will get your car dirty again. Nice pics and enjoy your Nikon. I "had" the same camera for 2 weeks, until I went to the zoo with my kids and dropped it :( . I will get a replacement one soon.

I've got an additional insurance policy that covers ALL of my camera gear against any loss, accidents, theft, etc... No deductible... Full replacement for MSRP value even though I purchase most of my gear used. It's a personal article policy that is an addition to my homeowners insurance - I highly recommend looking into it. Very affordable too.

Nice, I'm hoping Santa will be nice and bring me a camera this year!
