I dislike white

[C. Charles Hahn]

are you using a diff product for the lighter colors? i cant for the life of me get my whites to get half of that refection and depth/clearness

Nothing radical, really... my customer's Aztek was prepped with #83, followed by #80 (both by PC) and I sealed it with #20. In that particular shot of my Envoy, it had just been done with #80 and a coat of S100 about a week prior.

Now, that said, (echoing some others) it really DOES depend on your lighting just how much depth and reflection is possible. Here's two more shots with the trucks outside. The one of the Aztek was the very same day, the Envoy a couple months later after having been polished with ZPC and sealed with 3X of Z2Pro and a couple applications of Z8.

As you can see, the Envoy still has a bit of depth and reflection to it... but the Aztek is all but totally dead. If the sun had been shining, the story would've been much different for both vehicles -- that's why it's important to maintain realistic expectations about what is going to shine, how much it will shine, and where/when it will shine.
