As with all white its hard to show on camera the results but here it is.



1) Clay

2) Polished out with #80

3) Z1 & Z2 x 3

4) Wolfgang x 3 ( Seems to really make the pearl pop. )

Looks nice, a guy in the town over who works at zippos(car store) has a white one like yours totally done up too.

You should see if you can smoke your rear side markers too to complete the look.
 
Jesstzn. Looks great, I saw a pic of your passat on Vortex did you switch the wheels to the TL or do you have 2 sets. The car looks Awesome!
 
awesome glow to the white.



what made you decide to put Wolfgang over Zaino ? Something I never see anyone doing ? You may have just created a new "wonder combo" :D

Totally different bolt pattern than the Passat ones and these have a polished SS lip where the Passat had polished machined aluminum lip .. but same brand / model of wheel .. different lip.
 
very nice! that's a coincidence... i was at the honda dealership today getting an oil change, and right next to it was the acura dealer and i was checking those out as well as the new tsx's. :2thumbs:

Well its like this .. I liked the generic gloss of the Zaino and through a little experimenting I found that Wolfgang seemed to really make the pearl in the TL really "pop" but lacked the gloss I also wanted so I put Z2 on a mirror body .. waited a day then masked off 1/2 the mirror and applied the Wolfgang to one half .. waited 24 hours and added another Wolfgang then pulled it out in the sun .. I removed the tape and I could see the difference in the pearl and the Wolfgang very slightly softened the generic glass shine of the Zaino.



Either that or I need a life and had way too much time on my hands.
 
Those pearl white TL's are some of the nicest looking paint jobs I have seen. that metal flake seems to stand up on end when polished properly. One of the best looking whites available and I can just imagine what your car looks like in person. :waxing:
