    Want Blue Metalic to Pop

    Can you guys recommend a wax or Sealant that will make the Specs, on blue metallic paint pop. Any but Zymol products. ( too expensive)

    2 coats of CG Blacklight
    - 1 machine applied with white pad on speed 4
    - 1 hand applied (after cure time)

    PLUS

    2 good hand applied coats of BF Black Ice

    Blacklight does something with the metalic paints.... can't explain.
    Black Ice makes it deep and dripping wet!

    P.S. Blacklight by itself is Ok but does not last long on dark paint in the baking heat

    Wolfgang Fuzion really brought out the metallic in my Cyber Gray.

    You must have a delicate touch to apply the second coat of bl without removing the 1st coat of bl even by hand

    Blacklight is a must IMO, I used dodo juice blue velvet and then purple haze pro after. My blue metallic looked awesome.

    Blacklight didn't do much on my two blue cars. My favorite is BFWD. I have dark metalic blue on my impala and light metalic on my chevelle.
