Yeah, it's been my DD for a bit over a year so it has rock chips abound. I stopped worrying about it after the first three or so. Or maybe it was the pole I backed into the first night I had the car. Dunno!

So, while the rock chips stand out a tad bit more now, the rest of the paint looks really nice. There are still swirls, but not nearly as many and it's super shiny.

I'm happy with the results.

Your silver is likely MUCH more forgiving than black. Hell, anything is likely more forgiving than black. The metallic flakes pop like crazy now though, I really like it.

Basically this.

Chemical Guys BUF_501X - TORQ® 10FX Random Orbital Polisher Kit (9 items)

Seems like this is the normalized price wherever you find it now.
