Rooster, they do look good when they are clean, though I find silver a pain to detail properly

I mean the cars don't too bad when dirty, though they don't really look awesome after 5 hours detailing either...

Dave KG had some good advice though...

whereas my S60 in Cosmos blue was an awesome colour after detailing
