    Re: 2013 Silver truck...No swirls?

    I use to park my silver truck in a parking lot at night, under parking lot lights you should see what you are missing. If you can find LED lights (most Walmarts). This should help.

    Re: 2013 Silver truck...No swirls?

    I thought for the longest time I had no swirls on my Silver truck until I walked past it late in the evening when the sun was real low. Just happened to hit it just right. So now I do an AIO once a year and just be careful with my washed the rest of the time. It looks good for me

    I have used an LED flashlight
    to go over it looking for swirls
    and I see zero!

    I have looked and looked
    and I can't see any.
    Such a pleasure to have this
    as the case, IMO.

    Now...If it also has that often
    elusive "depth of shine"...then
    you're all set!

    Silver can be tough to see defects......my daughter's Hyundai (we bought used) has some very fine scratches only visible at the perfect angle...and all are on horizontal panels...we've concluded that the prior owner had cats...will be removing these scratches in the springtime

    If you haven't polished it yet there is a good chance it could look better.

    Yes, I agree. I plan on polishing in the spring.

    Re: 2013 Silver truck...No swirls?

    Well I took my 2004 silver Corrolla to gas the other night and WOW, swirls everywhere that I hadn't noticed. So what do I do but go get my 2013 Tacoma and go to the gas station. To my surprise there were very little to no swirls in the paint. I found a few light scratches that I hadn't noticed before but that was it. Whoever owned this before me must have known how to wash a truck.

    Or they just didn't wash it. Ive seen that before someone buys a car three years later trades it in never touched paint once that entire time and it's in very good condition no swirls cause no touching
