I've been doing some research re black car waxes etc.....PS. I'm no detailer.
Anyone that has a black car knows how great they look when they're clean....but swirls, scratches etc are a nuisance and many polishes aren't effective in hiding them.
Discovered this, Turtle wax black box....specifically for black cars. 4 stage process...ending with a gorgeous cherry almond smelling carnuba wax.
Application took me about 2.5 hours....but the results are, IMO well worth it. I don't think the car has ever looked this good.
It hides small scratches, stone chips and no swirls whatsover!! Great Mirror shine too.
Last pic, before i started. Lots of white residue. Lettering not clear in reflection
1st, After, less white spotting...more black and shiny and lettering far clearer in reflection
3rd Auditioning for "Coneheads II" next week
4th as Amy said
"Back to Black"
I'm impressed, you need to wear gloves as everything in the kit is black and would be hellish to wash off....couple of extra mico fibres needed too, but if you've got a black car, it gets a Thumbs up from me.
Cheers Wattie
