Now for my SVT, it's silver, so a carnauba doesn't make sense really (to show depth, color for the deep, "wet" look).




The depth and wet look are what I want but with silver it just wont happen.




Not quite true, I too have a Silver SVT and with time and effort a deep, "wet" look is achievable. I use Meguiars Show Car Glaze and #26 Carnuba wax to make it all happen.

Just look at this shine, it looks like a reflection from a lake (can't get more wet than water). Oh yeah, the trees in the hood are about 200 yards away:



I recently purchased #20 Polymer Sealant and have been pleased with the results, although it does in fact give you more of a shine than a deep look. My next experiment: #26 first with a coat of #20 for extra shine and protection.
