Post Zaino on silver paint

How much of a shine will I notice on a silver car. I've seen pictures of it on black and red and other darker colors, but I just want to know if it's worth the time.

Question

I'd really like to know this as well...I've been wanting to order Zaino but don't want to waste the time and money if it's not going to be worth it.

Zaino on just about any color car will be well worth it. White would not show as great a shine as most others, but silver should absolutely sparkle with a few coats of Z2 or Z5 and Z6. Here's a photo on Sal's site of a silver TA: http://www.zainobros.com/files/photos/silverta.htm

I'd say very impressive.

I have a silver car and after 2-3 coats, I came out of a store and looked at my car in a row of parked cars. You could see the other cars fine, but my car reflected the sun so brightly that you couldn't really look directly at it, it was amazing.

Thumbs up

It works very well, but it's only very noticeable out of direct sunlight, especially at twilight or at night.

Check the sig for pics, especially the one of the left side from behind.

Check the sig. It was a fairly dark, cloudy day but I think the Zaino makes the silver Z look better than it did before.
