Which is the best wax for silver? IYO?

[Damnhor2]

Hey guys, Which is the best wax for silver paint with flakes?
In your opinion off course...

[MoBenzOwner]

imo, sigii.

[Damnhor2]

If on the subject. Why does sigII cost more then the normal sig?

I have played around with various paste waxes and sealants on silver from UPP to Klasse SG to JW Acrylic Jett, Natty's, P21S, Collinite 845, etc. They all look nice... But definitely get some Optimum Spray wax, it look best on silver, IMO. You can top whatever LSP you want with it. I like to mist some OCW on the paint and then apply a paste wax on top, it looks great .... my form of spit shining.

Oh my god man! :-)
Now you got to explain to me what LSP & OCW are?

[budman3]

OCW = Optimum Car wax (spray wax)
LSP = Last step product/protection (wax or sealant)

I really can't narrow down which of the above looked the best ... Four Star UPP, Jeffs Werkstatt Acrylic Jett, and the Collinite are probably my top 3 choices, and of course OCW after the fact. If your looking for your flakes to jump but not have long durability (compared to a sealant) then you can't go wrong with SSII or Meguiar's #26. I know, I'm not too much help, there are many choices that you can go with.

For whatever reason I really like the look of Collinite 845 on silver, it gives a very noticeable warm glow on silver.

I believe SS II is a larger size (8oz vs 6oz). I don't even see SS I on AGs site maybe its out.

IMHO duragloss 601 -105 combo,UPP or zaino sealant. The optimum spray wax actually looks great on every color.

I've used Liquid Souveran, Clearkote Carnauba Wax, DG 105, and Danase DWG. Personally, I tend to favor the glazes and sealants over waxing silver--especially metallic flake. IMO, sealants and glazes tend to give a crisper look which really brings out the flakes. The warmer looks of wax don't look as good to me on metallic silver.

In addition, with pollen in full force, waxes are a dust magnet so right now I put on the sealant for durability, glaze for an lsp and either Optimum Instant Detailer or DG 521/1oz mix of AW to keep the dust off.

I have used several paste waxes, liquid to, just purchased a product of swissvax saphire, used on three vehicle so far and boy it's a nice product easy to apply and remove leave on for 20 minutes and remove. If you could let sit outside in sun for 3 hours. Just my opinion.
