Silver). It's fairly simple to get a shine, but I want some depth to the finish. I've tried a few products (Turtle Wax Ultimate and Bowdens Own) but I think that the finish could be better than I've acheived so far. Is the Autoglym sealer any good, especially considering some of the imported stuff (like the products sold on waxit) is very close in price.

I havnt used the Autoglym sealer but they seem to get a pretty good review. Depth is hard on silver but it can be done. Give it a polish first then try a wax that has no fillers. exarsixturbo said: Have you used CarLack 68 at all Dan?

How'd you know if a wax has fillers or not? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/44596-wax-vs-polish/page/3/#findComment-664162 Share on other sites More sharing options...

How'd you know if a wax has fillers or not? If it says it removes swirls and scratches it has fillers. I would suggest P21S, P21S 100 or OCW for silver. One of the P21S wax's would probably look the best Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/44596-wax-vs-polish/page/3/#findComment-664290 Share on other sites More sharing options...
