    Default Why do people.................

    spray stuff with a hose before taking pics?? I dont get it. I see a lot of car ads and stuff where someone takes a hose and wets the car down, and the pavement around it but everything else is dry. Its like the idiots see these car commercials and professional pictures of a car with its reflection and think they can do the same thing with their fucking garden hose. Same with wheels and shit for sale on here. Half the time it makes the pics/items look more busted ass shit then if they would just clean the shit and take a clear picture of it.

    Anyone else notice this?

    Maybe they're just last minute spray downs before putting an item up for sale.

    I've been wondering the same thing.

    It's like they're too lazy to actually prep their parts/cars before they try to sell them.

    It makes me not want to buy anything from them, because that shows how they actually treat their things.

    Then let them dry.

    If I was selling some wheels, which I am right now, I'd clean the crap out of them and let them dry before taking pictures. That shows that you take care of them.

    I'm really referring to this one guy who had some wheels and tires for sale on here.

    They were muddy as hell and had brake dust all over them.

    But he took pictures of them sprayed with a hose. Still dirty

    I clean mine regularly, but when I sell them, I just make sure to give them a quick clean before I take pictures.

    i know, thats why its a good wet pic... because it really is wet outside... not a random fucking rain shower over your car and about 6ft of pavement around it!
