DJ - 3M Imperial Hand Glaze mixed with a tiny spot of P21S Paintwork Cleansing Lotion... if you haven't tried the combo, you'll be very satisfied. Just be very light with it and use as small a dot of P21 as possible (just a dab fot every palm full of 3M)

 

Parker - that wont cover the chips though - the paint other than the chips looked great with Klasse all in one then p21s paste = the chips are killing me

 

Seal Gray with clear bra... it's perfection or as close to it as possible. You don't see the clear bra at all, and the car always looks clean. I haven't washed in weeks, but all I do is clean brake dust off the wheels, and it looks clean (mostly).

I just bought a new sedan (Acura TL) and got it in white. They had some used ones, and I investigated their front ends. With the white primer underneath, you can't see rock chips on white, but on all other colors you do. Now I have 2 very easy maintenance cars.

 

just get a silver car...only way to go

 

this is true. sorry about the chips

 

wouldn't it be nice to have your own spray room aside the garage?!? hell, you could change your paint anytime you wanted

 

I owned a white car... Maintenance is not easy to keep them clean and shiny. Chips may be hidden but any puddle messes up the whole car.

The neighborhood sprinklers as hell on clean cars...

 

Isn't that true of all colors?

White, like silver, at least appears clean while dirty compared to other colors.

My seal grey looks clean until you get close and see the layer of dust and gunk. hehe

 

Not to me...

I would have an issue with white... I'm a clean freak.. Silver hides dirt sooooo good I'm spoiled and have bought silver my last 4 cars...

 

Yeah... I would have gotten close to silver if I didn't have a Seal Grey Turbo already.
I didn't want 2 silver cars.
Also, in the heat here, I don't want black interior, so white/tan is the best heat color combo for the summers.

Lastly, white and silver are the best at resisting fading, and since my TL will be outside quite a bit, that was another issue.

 

I feel your pain Darren. I have to wipe mine down probably 3-4 times after it's dry because of all the damn pollen in the air right now. Spoiler looks tight though.

 

A guy showed me some super tough paint on his roll bar. You hit it with a metal hammer and nothing, no mark, no chip, unreal. Too bad there isn't some super tough clearcoat for cars like that. Sux to have to worry so much about chipping the paint just driving around.

 

That's funny, I was going to order seal grey but they had a silver on the lot that I bought instead of waiting...

I don't worry about heat here in Florida...

Good luck with the TL.. The new ones are sharp...

 

Hello,
I beleive black is the king of colors :P.. hard to clean.. but when it is u cant beat it..

 

Oh, but black is soooo pretty when it's clean. I am of course biased!
