Zaino on Silver?

I've seen pictures of black and red cars that have been Zaino'd (looks great), but never a silver. Would it be worth it to Zaino a silver car? Would you be able to see a difference? I assume that it would not be as extreme as a red or black though. Any thoughts? Anyone Zaino a silver car?

Thats a difficult question to answer but I have four coats of Zaino on my silver and i'm very pleased. Your right though, we'll never get the dramatic results that the cars with dark colors get. No pics yet, sorry.

Not the best pics (1MP cheap camera) looks much better in person.

Silver Zaino

Not an RX-8 but here is my silver Prelude..






Silver is definitely not as deep as say black or red, especially during daylight but at night the car looks awesome.

Here is a silver RX-8 next to a silver Miata, if you look close you can see the RX-8 reflected in the Miata's reflection in the Rx-8. (both cars have 5 coats of Zaino on them)

Well, I'll tell ya. I was kinda sad after aplying my first Zaino layer on my titanium gray. However I did like it more than a wax and kept layering it on. At 4 layers I noticed the car was looking nice adn shiny all the time. Another layer and I am really starting to notice the difference. So stick with it. Knock out a bunch of layers over a few weekends and it should start to shimmer.
