in my opinion, #21 looks much better on all darker colors, and also on lighter colors with no flake in them ..

I think it is even more durable than #20 ..


another thing that has to be mentioned when talking about putting a carnauba over a sealant is to make sure that you give the sealant enough time to cure, and bond to the paint .. usualyl 12 - 24 hours, depending on product, humidity, temp, etc ..

Car looks great. The black on the car came out really well. You gotta love silver. It really is pretty easy to keep clean.

Not a huge fan of center mount exhaust, but your car looks sick. Cut your hair hoppy!
