Do you use a sealant it caranauba? The depth comes from polish. Polishing makes the most dramatic diff.

wut? polishing helps bring depth to the paint be eliminating scratches and blemishes, but the wax (if it dosnt suck) brings out MORE depth, clarity, and shine too.

"carnauba" <- yes I use that. This exact one in fact.

Sometimes this:

Sometimes this:

Sometimes a combo of the 3 above. They all have different shine characteristics.

and sometimes I use Maguires on the orbital if Im being lazy, or Griots Waxes and Polishes. Just depends on my mood and how bad the car is. I havent detailed shit in a while since I dont have any cars I gaf about. I will probably detail the wife's FRC here soon if we ever get it out of storage. It hasnt moved an inch since last May.
