I have Souvran Signature I. This used to do wonders for the flake on a black Tacoma I had. New car has a pretty heavy flake to it. It seems like the industry has had a definite shift towards sealant/polymer technology. However, most of these just give a candy coated look.

Is there a sealant/polymer that gives a more warm glow that makes the flake pop? I'd use the Souvran, but I'd like to try some of the new products on the market over top.

One product I use all the time is menzerna power lock sealant....
Head to my site and click on my link to Facebook .. I used it on my wife's jeep and looks and feels amazing

If the paint is well prep'd/polished,I don't know of a sealant that will not make the flakes pop?
It's all in the prep :)
