Default Astra Clean

Here is our new Astra.
Gave it a good power hose down, washed using 2 bucket (Autoglym shampoo) , dried and have then used Auto glym SRP and EPG

only took the one picture. Im after any advice as to how to improve the finish. My vtr is Black so not too much hard work to get a great shine

So can anyone help, or am i just wanting too much from a silver car

Mate silver is a pain to get a good deep reflection out of, change of products might suffice, i have been telling some of my pals to get the Jeffs Werkstaat range as for me it will leave you speechless, i love Zaino too so thats always worth bearing in mind, have a search on the detailing section on here and on Detailing world you will pick up some good tips along the way.
