    Re: Best shine for silver paint?

    McKee’s 37 High Def Paint Sealant is awesome on silver! Actually it’s excellent on every color! Easy on, easy off.

    True.

    Not only is it hard to make silver, "pop", but it depends on the silver paint itself too. Case in point is BMW silver paint over the years. Titanium Silver was a darker silver with medium metallic flake. When detailed properly and a carnauba wax applied, it simply glowed and looked amazing. The current Glacier Silver is a different animal. The paint is a lighter color and the metallic flake is tiny and more sparse. A good LSP for paint like that is one with a glassy shine to make the lighter color stand out.

    Duragloss 111 is great on silver. Even better mixed with DG601.

    The Guz had some nice results on a silver car he did.

    Here are some pics of FK1000p over KAIO (that I did)

    These are the results from just Megs D300 using microfiber pads on silver paint.
