It's true...Looking very close at body/paint on vehicles at the mopar nationals this past weekend, I had to just about put my face 1" from panels to be able to see texture and scratches.
This is a good thing!
Silver does hide alot of sins. if only it wasn't so horrible to spray........
Though I haven't had it out in the sun yet I'm sure looking forward to it.
To see what would happen, stepped up to a polish on the trunklid and rearmost tops of quarters (nothing fancy, the newer Meguairs M210 on a fine yellow foam pad/DA polisher). The shine is coming up pretty nicely, will probably do the whole car with it once the dirt and insects are all corrected, but want to experiment with a medium pad as I think I might like that better.
Currently refining the dirt and insects out of the roof.
