anyone have any tips on getting silver to look "deep"?

 

yep, looking good.
For silver to look deep, i'd consider a caranuba based paste wax. Pinnacle souveran in liquid form is alot easier to apply, but the paste works alot better. Your paint seems smack in the middle as far as not too dark or bright. You can definatly benefit from moving over to souervan in paste form. PS21s will look grat also.... Also, you can try mixing up some heavier wax underneath, and layering the souveran on, on top.

If you don't want to spend that, checkout how ps21s paste looks on the thread in 5th gen forum. I used it on goldmaxs car. I'd say its 70-80% as good as souveran on a lighter colored car, on very dark car (or a car with alot of metal flake in the paint) it really, really makes some amazing difference. I think your color can appreciate the benefits. On a midnight blue clk 430 i did , it really transformed the color, in picture it almost looks black!

Yet, your car looks great, you you got yer stuff together. Apply 3-5 layers if you can, do it each 2 weeks... When it gets real cold out, you can move to a synthetic wax to keep the finish protected longer.

nice job man!

 

thats one cleeeeeaaannn maxima. good job

 

looks great man! reminds me i still have to get my final coat of wax on and its getting cold out there quickly

 

Wow! If you ever have the urge to sell your stock rims PM me, those babies look mint!

 

thanks guys! and thanks for your tips mjg, ill look into some paste wax, it shouldnt be hard to get a coat on with the pc. dmad8724, i try to clean them at least once a week, i spent an hour on them that day, and protected them with a couple coats of liquid glass...and i plan on keeping them, sorry!

 

I hate to break it to ya, but your car isn't ready for winter. The only protection you have on it is Souveran liquid, and that is not a very durable wax. You need a durable sealant on there, or at least a durable wax like Meg's #16 paste. The Souveran will wear off quickly, and unless you want to rewax every month in the winter, you need a more durable product in order for it to last through the winter.
