Of course i want a lovely shiney finish like everyone
thanks in advance for help

Have a look at the two stickes at the top of the forum, particularly the one on black cars. It will show you the different looks you can get. The shiniest is like a mirror, but can be seen as cold and lacking emotion. The wettest really brings out the colour. Other options bring out the flake in metallic paint better. For green (which I think is fairly dark) I'd prefer the wet look, but there are compromises between the options. All is explained in the sticky.

I have a DGM MY98 and I use the Jeffs werkstatt carnauba system. Gives a nice wet look, and, given the age, will mask defects, as opposed to highlighting them which is what an acrylic system will do.

On mica green, two great options spring depending on how you want the car to look. For a hard, shiny look with maximum enhancement of the appearance of the metallic flake, the Jeffs Werkstatt Acrylic Kit would be ideal (and comes with all pads/towels)...

However, for a much wetter look with less flake pop but more glossiness, then the Blackfire range is worth considering, starting with Wet Diamond All Finish Paint Protection and ending (optionally) with Wet Diamond Ivory Carnauba Paste Wax...
Blackfire Wet Diamond All Finish Paint Protection
Blackfire Wet Diamond Ivory Carnauba Paste Wax
The above wax comes as a kit with a high quality applicator and buffing towel, all you need to add is a German Pad and Poorboys Deluxe Mega Towel for the application/buffing of the All Finish Paint Protection.
