Default Best Cheap Light To View Scratches/Swirls

Hi guys, I recently washed my car with what appears to be a contaminated wash mitt so now I have select spots where there are very light swirl/scratches. I'm doing this by hand with ScratchX 2.0, ultimate polish and then topping with Black Wax. I've already done the trunk, but having a light will make completing the sides much easier since its a much larger area.



Is there a cheap light option on the market so I don't have to go to parking lot and look crazy pulling my car into and out of the shade? Lol

These scratches are only visible in direct sunlight.



Thanks!

A simple very-bright LED flashlight would work. A task light, with a tall string of bright fluorescents or LEDs on a rollaround stand, would make it easier. The closer you get to this, the better, I think. http://www.autobodytoolmart.com/cham...t-p-19287.aspx
