My Subaru is supposed to be Dark Gray Metallic but for the past few months I've been feeling that the Zaino is overly glossy and shiny and is making the car look purple in my eyes.

Look at this gallery of pictures that I took the day after I applied a coat of Zaino All-in-One and Zaino Clear Seal. I think I may invest in some Poorboys Polish w/Sealant and Natty's Blue or something like that.

Please let me know your thoughts because I am somewhat color-blind. I know that pictures are so far from the real thing but it's all I got for all of you.

Thanks,
Emile

Looks fine to me... The purple you're seeing might just be the grey mixing with the reflections of the blue sky or something, cause I'm not seeing any kind of purple in those shots.

I swear I keep looking at it and seeing purple. Thanks for the compliments. I really wanted an excuse to try something new, too.

Is it even possible to have too much gloss?? But seriously, I think it looks fantastic!

maybe some blueish flakes in the metallic contrasting with grey ?? Zaino claims to be optically clear so must be the paint huh.

Looks great, clean, shiny, nice reflection, a layer or two of protection, who cares what color it is, it's taken care of....

i would say that it never hurts to try something new, especially if your not completely satisfied with how it looks now.
