    Silver like white is not a shiny color unlike black or dark colors. It should be shiny if you are not 90 deg from it. For example in my silver car I can see rain droplets coming down from the garage roof while waxing the roof and hood.

    You may want to put glaze first before the wax. I haven't tried it pero from what I read... Wax is for protection not for making it shiny, side-effect lang ng wax ang pagkashiny. Ang glaze ata ang magpapashine since it will fill in the micro scratches. Anyway lets wait for the experts answers.

    One good trait for silver is that it looks less dirty unlike the shiny colors like black or dark colors when dirt is present.

    it is usual na nagkakaroon ng libag ang pintura. so i suggest before placing the glaze and wax. use turtle wax polishing compount. iba pa to sa turtle rubbing compount. its basically a cream that desolves the thin layer of dirt one the paint. after using the polish you will notice that mas buhay ang paint. then you can protect it will the glaz and wax.
