No worries mate.

i had the same problem most polishes work well to fill darker cars but the white diamond is a glaze made for lighter cars and its AWESOME stuff!

You still need a wax after though but when im using the white diamond, I like to use three stages after clean, clay and lime prime.

1.White diamond glaze-Let the glaze do the work as it will go far mate
2.Poor boys EX-P sealant - this is not a common practise but I find it gives that wet,glossy look on top of the glaze and provides a good level of SRP on its own, leave it for 30 mins OUT OF THE SUN and then buff off and admire !!!
3. Wax-loads on the market but look for a high carnuba content and give it one coat , buff off as normal, then if im really looking for protection and shine, I leave the car overnight COVERED up so no dust can get on the paint work, then use some quick detail to make sure the panels are 100% clean and wax again.

Take a look in the how to guides my detail guide is in there skip to the end and you will see the finish without white diamond, with the diamond its a LOAD more glossy and gives the paint a deep finish.

You know where the woot button is buddy LOL

AND I WANT PHOTOS ASAP !!!

The thing is with white diamond it's not a polish it's a cleanser, ie it cleans the dirt from the swirls making them less noticable then fills the remainder unlike lime prime which contains abbrasives;) White Diamond is more or less the same as ag srp or lime prime lite. yes I suppose it would hide more than srp (although I am not a fan of srp) but at a slightly higher cost, but not as much as lime prime would hide, maybe on par with lime prime lite though, but forget about the lite as your car hasn't been detailed so you would need someting with a bit more oomph than a cleanser and filler hence lime prime would be the better polish to go for;)
