Paint question

I was just curious I've seen some black X5 that are glossier than others and I was wondering if it's a wrap or a certain kind of wax/paste that makes them shinier than others? If so can somebody give me some info on it I have a few pictures of what I'm talking about of the glossy and not glossy!

Opti gloss sealant can make it look like your X5 is wrapped in glass. Lot of different options out there sealants and clear protection wraps.

The contrast in that first pic is set higher so it looks glossier than it probably is. You can tell by looking at the ground in the foreground, and by the way the shadow is so much darker under the rear of the car than the front.
