Lol. No mate..it's not coloured. It doesn't turn a blue car white does it, or a white car blue for that matter?
I use autoglym. Never had a problem with my polish. Can't comment on the other brands..there's so many about.

Good luck on the buy: get some pics up.

it will turn black plasitc white becuase polish is white, the idea is supose to keep it away from black plastics

any sort of polish or wax will be fine though

i use autoglym and havnt had a problem on any of my cars
