My future father-in-law just bought a 1979 Corvette, White Pearl. There aren`t many paint problems to speak of other than a few swirls. What I want to know is which sealant and wax to use on it, as I haven`t worked on many white pearl finishes. I have the following, but if there`s something I don`t have that you feel strongly would give better results, chime in as well.



Pinnacle Souveran

Wolfgang

MPPP

#26

Gold Class Liquid

NXT

3M Perfect It Show Car Liquid (Doubt this one)



So, any of you get good results with on this color with any of the above? I`m also open to suggestions on polish/glaze stage, as I have #7, #82, #9, WG Pre Wax Polish, and some others I can`t think of at this late hour. What combo makes it pop?

NXT with SOUVERN on top,SOUVERN is in a class all by itself. NOT much in the duarbilty

AND by the way I use 3m SHOW CAR LIQUID and paste its a GREAT product but it shows up better on darker cars

Souveran over NXT rather than over Wolfgang? Hmm, I`d try it.

Anyone else?

And yes I agree on the 3m, good wax but better for dark colors.

I`ll second the Souveran recommendation. Putting it over a sealant will help things last longer (and probably look better too), but I`ve used Souveran over (Audi) pearl white and it looked great. I wouldn`t have a preference between the MPP, WG, and NXT, I`d put the Souveran over one of those.

I like WG better than NXT, but that`s just me.



It`s not on your list but VM + EX + #16 is MY favorite white combo. Very bright, wet and durable. By all means use your Souveran instead of #16 if you like, but I like #16`s durability. When I`m lazy after a wash I "touch up" this combo with S-100.



(I`d use the WG followed by Souveran... from what`s on your list.) :usa

I have found that VM/CMW is killer on pearl and not to mention, several other colors!

Thanks for the replies guys. So far I`m leaning towards WG twins, then Souveran. That should give some nice results.

While it`s not on your list, a Blackfire combo might be worth checking out too. I`ve been very happy with the look of Blackfire on white.

Same with VM/EX-P, as in this Escalade:
