I have purchased 3 different lights ranging from 200 lumens to 1000 lumens all single white led and I can not see light scratches or swirl marks. During the day or at night, my paint simply reflects the light and hides the imperfections not sure how else to explain it. I have an Audi with Ice Silver for the paint color. I can take these same lights on to any other solid color paintwork and can see the swirls. I think it has to do with the metallic aspect of the paint?
Anyone have any suggestions? Maybe a different light like a warmer light? havent tried such yet but before I spend any more money I wanted to get some feedback.
Oh I am able to see the swirl marks at night from our motion sensor security light which is a warmer light, maybe that is a factor? I can only paint correct outside, no garage and Im not sure if my apartment neighbors would enjoy me using a DA at night lol...
