Paint

Ok I have a 99 prelude...

I was wondering if there was anyway to get the blue pearl out...

It is black with a blue pearl to it..

I can only see the blue when my car is wet...

Any tips would be helpfull..
Thanks

I like the following products for dark colored cars - really deepens the look of the paint which should help make the blue come out:
  • Meguiar's NXT
  • S100
  • Poorboy's EX

Zaino and Menzerna are both very very good. Menzerna is better than Zaino.
