Hey guys, any suggestions of combos of products to use, tips, or tricks to make white really stand out and pop?

 

Paint it red, black or anything besides white!

If window tinting is legal in your state that would help for sure. It really seems to look good on white cars.

I have a white and silver Lariat now. First white I've owned in a long while. It is a strange color! You buff and wax and it looks better but not that much.....but then when it gets dirty it doesn't look that bad.

You could also consider a black bed cover, an inexpensive smoked bug shield, or have a good Maaco paint the top half of your truck orange like the one on this site on the magnaflow ad.

I asked my Maaco (who do good work) and they said they would shoot the top (top of fenders, cab, cover) for like $350. I would do it but I've got the Silver on the bottom as well as my bed cover and Lariat pin stripping are Silver

As far as the paint itself I don't know anything that would effect white much different than on other colors.

 

I clayed mine and used some Turtle Wax ICE. It came out really great. Boy how it shined.

 

Get the Dallas Cowboys Star logo painted on the hood and doors!

 

I still continue to think that this may be one of the best looking WHITE vehicles that I've seen..... Quoted response below:

While I've never used the product, I think this is a testament to the fact that it *CAN* be done....

 

I plan on having the windows tinted. Usually one of the first things I do to a new vehicle.

Not sure about painting a king ranch orange.

 

That navi does look great. Maybe I can just park mine next to yours and get a pic of your black reflecting my white.

 

IMO, white paint really pops with just a regular wash and a good wax. It helps to keep the blacks, black, and touches of bright chrome help. All a part of what that Expedition has going for it. That, and great lighting angle and camera/camerawork.

 

Yeah I would not want to do any painting on a newer vehicle. But have you seen the Orange and White one on the ad? It is mean looking. Its mean I say!

 

I was out waxing mine today. I used NXT, and it produced a pretty good shine. I was experimenting with a few different things, topped of the NXT on the tailgate with a layer of #26. To me it didn't shine as much as just the NXT by itself.

 

Some like 'gloss' Countyboy... some like more depth and a warm glow...

If you're more on the 'glossy' end of the spectrum, you probably won't like the #26 topper (although, I'd caution you to not draw judgement until after you've washed it once or twice)... if you're more on the depth and warm end, the #26 in most folks opinion (including mine) will add a little different look.

Mind you, it's not night and day different but, side by side, I think you'd see a different in daylight. Enjoy!

 

I bought white for a reason, point-blank: Its' my third favorite, to red, on this body style. Silver isn't available in a Lariat. White is my third choice, and it's also easy to maintain especially in FL. 'Nuff said.

 

I think your truck already "pops" With the two tone you have, it already stands out from the rest I think.

I mean if that truck was going down our street just how it is right now, I'd have my eyes drawn onto it. Its a sharp looking truck!

 

Lots of good tips above. I think my truck looks great and it's just a combo of Zaino and polish lock. To make it really stand out, just park it near other white cars that people say don't look dirty because they're white.

Sadly, I really only see the deep shine in my truck when it's in the shade.
