C-Quartz Reapplication; Photography / Photo Shoot Information (Part 2)

We decided to follow up our midnight parking garage photo shoot with a daytime one. Recap: C-Quartz reapplication after two years by Arlington Auto Detailing, car super clean, and we decided to take some photos.
Because we had bright sunlight I decided to do these photos in a different way. For the majority of the photos I took them fixed at 100 ISO and then overexposed, at middle white balance, and underexposed.

C-Quartz Review & Reapplication; Photography / Photo Shoot Information

It has been over two years since we first did a C-Quartz application, which is the expected life time. We had Arlington Auto Detailing do a full detail, including removing the shallow swirl we had acquired, and reapply C-Quartz. Arlington Auto Detailing has been my go to shop for my bi-annual auto details since moving up to the Boston area.

In terms of two year satisfaction with C-Quartz: I am happy, it makes it really easy to keep the car clean and makes a lot of things that would otherwise damage the clear coat just wipe off without caring. At the same time it does not protect against small rock chips at all. In the future (any new car and/or repaint of a car) I would do a full PPF wrap with a ceramic coating on top to get the best of both rock ship / minor scratch protection and easy to clean paint / film protection.

That all said, with the car looking rather clean and pretty and my building having a parking garage as part of its complex I decided to do a midnight parking garage photo shoot.

Camera Hardware: Circular Polarizing Filter

I recently purchased a  77mm Kaesemann XS-ProCircular Polarizer MRC Nano Filter from B&H.
One of the things a Circular Polarizer Filter (CPF) does for you is it gives a filter with adjustable polarization via rotation. This means you can eliminate a lot of glare and reflections off a surface you are photographing.
This is supposed to help a lot with photographing water, the sky, and more pertinent to this blog, automobiles.
So I decided to test the filter today in the run up to my going to the Auto Show Philadelphia 2016.
I would say the results clearly show it is functional.

There will be a more in depth post on the car I photographed later, and a story as to why I have the rental.
This first photo is with little to no polarization:
