Now tat's a shine baby--

It's small, I copied and pasted from My350Z.com (Ricky's avatar). But what a shine!
Look closely--the car is right there:

Re: Now tat's a shine baby--

Your car will never shine like that because it's silver. The shiny car is black. Black shines... sorry. That's why I bought black [img]/w3timages/icons/wink.gif[/img]

It sucks that silver always looks the same. This is why everyone and their mother has a silver G (another reason why I bought black).

Actually, that's one of it's finer points. You can accumulate a month's worth of road grime, and still look cleaner than a black car that was washed 3 days ago.

Re: Now tat's a shine baby--

Impressive.

For dark colored cars, Blackfire is an outstanding product. It is anti-static so it repels dust fairly well and has a good lifespan. It will not give the shine of a carnauba, but it still looks very stunning.

I have some great reflections pictures of my other car, an Acura Integra GS-R (no pics of it on the G yet). This was done using a German-made synthetic glaze known as Klasse. It is multi-step and layerable. I top it off with a P21S carnauba wax that has a high carnauba % composition.

For the pics to work, you'll have to cut and paste into a new browser window (no external linking).

Keep in mind, this is on a dark green car with 4-year old paint that has seen salt and road grime in Chicago:
