Lighting for detailing

[Eager]

What’s your lighting setup for when buffing a car ? Wouldn mind adding something more in my garage, it’s got excellent general lighting day light tubes with white walls, but side on I could use something extra
Anyone mount anything to walls or just use floor standing flood light type things ?

Personally I use twin led floodlights on a tripod, and also 2 different colour match sealey torches. If it is just for home use I would recommend buying a colour match torch

I like the idea of lighting always available like a stand, not flicking a torch on and off

LED you recommend ?

Proper lighting can get expensive.

the lighting setup @big_pete has is unreal and only getting better

Decent quality LED stands are where I would start, something with focus not a diffussed light

Yea though on a stand is much easier

I need a stand, on the floor it’s always catching your eye, gives me a headache.
This one looks good value....

Screwfix do twin light on a stand for not a lot of money. I'm yet to take the diffusers off though.

I've got a halogen set of those twins on a stand and an LED set, depending what I'm looking for the different light shows up different things, I find.

The Sealey LED057 CRI95 are very good; the previous model were the same spec but a lower battery capacity and £57 each.

We’ve sold a load of these which are a brilliant job for detailing, they usually come with a telescopic stand, but can be used on their own. Two brightness levels and each lamp can be run individually or together.
