"Pop" on silver paint

Gteq EXO ceramic on wife’s Lexus IS350 with SIO touchup monthly works nice. My Cayman S has Duragloss on it with Aqua wax topper ( the EXO ceramic/SiO gets the slight edge on “pop”)

Are they the same color?
 
Ultima makes a spray sealant that is super easy to apply, so easy that I thought there's no chance that it will protect, however, it makes silver paint pop extremely well. Four Star Ultimate Paint Sealant does this too. A little more protection, and easy to apply. It's more of a traditional sealant. Pinnacle Souveran is another that works excellent on making silver pop.
 
Wow. You guys are great. Thanks for all the tips! I actually pulled the plastic off this truck myself when it was new. Gave it a very light hand wash, clayed, and then hit it with 360, then hi-Def. Also experimented a little with BF SiO2 spray.

Though the paint is swirl free, I'm thinking a dedicated polish is in order. And then I'll try something that you guys have recommended. There is a small amount of metallic flake, but not much. I do have DG 111 + Aquawax in my closet. And also FK1000p HiTemp Paste. I've got PL, UPGP, BF SiO2, McKees Coating... many others, as well.

I'll spend some time looking at mikes articles and read through all the recommendations you guys have posted. Thanks again. Lots of good info here.

Sounds like you have some good stuff already. Maybe just play with the lighting that you're admiring your clean silver Runner in and it might be enough?
 
All great choices in your arsenal, I highly recommend doing a dedicated machine polish and then stick with what you have.
