I took this picture during hurricane Issac. While most of my friends were out of power during the storm; I got bored and decided to wax my car. :xyxthumbs: So I didnt get a chance to get too many pictures since it was storming outside; photos were taken inside. An hour after this photo I lost power for 5 days. Sorry I am not a pro detailer and photographer...

I dont why the picture came out black/white looking but it was shot with a Nikon D5000. The picture was not edit. Honestly I think this is probably the best sealant/wax combo I put on my car so far. My last set up KSG and Liquid Soveran, which gave the car a warm glow, but I like this combo better because its more wet looking and really shows the pearl and metallic in the paint.
 
I also have an 05 LGT in SWP. I think I recognize your name from LGT.com. I'm on there with the same username but only have a few posts because I just recently bought the car. I conveniently ran across your post while I'm trying to decide which wax to use. Normally I would clay and then polish with 105/205, but I felt no significant surface contaminants and the few lights swirls it has were not enough to compel me to spend the time polishing it. It has a coat of DGPS on it now, and I'll top it with either Souveran paste, Fuzion, or maybe Natty's blue. Based on your comments I'm thinking I'll go with Fuzion this time. I don't think I'm necessarily after a warm glow on this car. The metallic in SWP is subtle enough that I don't know if it will ever really pop regardless of which LSP is used, but the last thing I want to do is mute the metallic at all.
 
Honestly I wasn't gonna use fusion at all... It just I was bored walking around the house at the time... Personally I have nattys red and blue wax... I don't like the blue at all but the red is awesome for the price! The car has not been polished since I purchased the car 2 years ago. I went with 4* paint sealant this time because of the good reviews and since it cures in 6 hours. Anyways thanks for looking and if you need help with ur car... I don't mind helping at all on both forums.

Yeah I went with fusion as my LSP because I gotten a sample size from AG when I brought my buffer. Liquid soveran is a great as LSP also. Suppose to be made for lights and metallic paint.
 
Forgot to add pinnacle lotion to remove my old wax before polishing.
