Detailing Question

[maccini]

I have a 2011 Silverado 1500 Crew and the color is silver. I use BlackFire products and I have a decent wet look shine to it. I'm looking for better. I'm looking for the ultimare wet look and protection. Anyone have any good products they use on white or light trucks? The BlackFire rocks on darker colors. I was told to try EZ-creme glaze from the Chemical Guys. Any other suggestions? Oh, a side note ... I run my truck through the car wash 3-4 times a week. Yeah, I know, I shouldn't but I don't have the time to clean it at home

It is gonna be hard to keep anything on there very long useing a high pressure carwax that often.

 

I've read A Lot of good reviews on Collinite 845. Good durable all around wax.

 

Here is plenty of reading on the subject:

Collinite 845 doesnt necessarily leave a "wet" look but its durability is excellent.

 

One to try would be poorboys natty red.

By your question and the fact that you wash your truck 3-4 times a week I will assume the look of your paint is the bigger priority over protecting it. To each his own, but I would consider protection over appearance, this will give you a longer shine for the life of the truck. Also consider that taking your truck to get washed that much is going to rub any protection off at a higher rate and is also going to increase the amount and frequency of spider webs you get which then means you're going to have to detail your truck more often.

 

@lances07271 posted a good site...autogeek.net. You can get an excellant shine using clay, polish, sealant then wax. After each wash hit it with some spray wax and the shine will be unbelievable. Note that the carnuba wax gives a deeper shine then the new waxes that are out there. Give it a try, you may be pleasantly surprised!

 

Happy detailing.

Anyone ever try NuFinish? I was told it holds up really well.

I might try Element 119 System X Ceramic Coating. I watched the Youtube videos and was impressed.
