    Good LSP for metallic paint?

    I have been using Collinite 845 and I like what it does with my metallic paint. I have been wanting to try a new LSP lately now that summer is on its way around.

    I have been looking at Max Wax, Fuzion, and SSII, are there other LSPs I should look at that will make my metallic paint pop?

    On my black metallic, pinnacle Souveran has been unbeatable. BFMS also looks fantastic and is a little more durable but finish is a tad different.

    What type of LSP are you looking for:
    Wax, Sealant, or Coating?

    IMHO:
    Collinite #845 will also work famously during the warmer months. Why change-up, if you like what it does?

    I have no real reason to change, I just want to try something new.

    I am looking for a wax or sealant. I don't feel like messing with a coating

    What finishing-polishes do you use?

    Staying within the Brand's family is conducive to easier transitions between processes/applications---Synergy, et al.

    I use Menzerna 2500 as a 1 step.

    Thanks!

    Then I would use either one of these two Sealants:

    Menzerna Power Lock Polymer Paint Sealant, Menzerna auto sealant, car sealant, paint sealant protectant

    Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant delivers a deep, wet, liquid shimmer unlike anything you can imagine.

    Have you tried Collinite 915? It's durable and always looks great. Sticking with wax, PB Natty's Blue is popular on dark paint and just blew away Meg's and Mothers waxes on my dark blue Jettta, and cost just a bit more. The 915 may be more durable.
