It is a perfect likeness. I just sent you a PM on that monkeyboy but you beat me to the punch.

Yeah, I might do a 2nd application this weekend... see if it shines even more...


I do have to say though, it seems like the silver doesn't really reflect too much more; or it's not as visible... but I still notice a difference.
Itwill increase the look slightly but the main reason for the second coat is to assure full coverage and add another layer of protection. Three coats is about max in achieving the best look. You won't need to use near as much product on the second application.

what would be the down side to applying the second coat in direct sunlight? assuming i'd limit the spraying to apply it before it drieds.

It depends on the outside temp and the color of the car. A mild day and a light colored car is no worries. A black car in 95 degree sunlight will be hotter than the ambient temperature. The product would flash so quickly that it would be a smeary mess.

It might just be me, but I can't tell the difference from the pictures between washing/drying, and washing/drying/wet paint. I mean, I can tell the difference between the dirty car, and the WP'd car on the website's video, but other than that, I couldn't tell the difference between the WP, and the ICE polish I picked up the other day.
