Paint color and swirl marks
Which Lexus paint color is least likely to show swirl marks? White pearl?

Typically light, highly metallic colors are hardest to view paint defects... so metallic whites & silvers.

Thanks. Any comments or suggestions about a choice then between silver lining and atomic silver in regards to durability, appearance, etc?

No difference here and even less if you apply tried and true methods for car washing and detailing.

Silver and light beige are the easiest to maintain colors.
White is nice, but have its own share of problems, never looks clean, shows contaminants the most of any other color,etc.

Oh, I always forget about the beige... that is probably the best of the best.
