Hi all,

Looking for the best wax for my black FX. Looking for something to hide minor imperfections as well. My bro said soemthing of a Mothers wax just for black vehicles? Any input appreciated,

Thanks,

Gay
 
Hands down my personal favorite is Black Box by Turtle Wax it takes forever to finish all the steps but well worth the outcome ! give it a shot
 
I use this too...before blackfire...love it! easy on and easy off.
I use the liquid one, not the paste. This is coming from a guy who used the Nu-Finish paste wax.
I'll check out the Blackfire, though.
 
^ I use the liquid NXT Generation Tech Wax 2.0 also....here the steps I do...

wash
clay
clean wax
polish wax
NXT Generation Tech Wax 2.0 liquid twice
Blackfire twice.

my car beads water for 1 year seems like and after a wash people are surprised how shiny it is.
 
I'd be pretty interested in a car detailing mini-meet at some point. Especially with the black paint, I'm always afraid that I'm going to haze/swirl the shit out of paint so I tend to farm out a lot of that work. Might have to go pickup a Black Box and give it a try.
 
This is what I use...it's expensive, but amazing....

It's expensive because it's unlike any other product and hold patents.

Would they buy this item again? Yes
I was a Zaino user until a friend stopped by with his new black Mustang. I asked him what wax/polish he used because it is hard to get black to look so good and he told me about Blackfire. I used it on my wife's new black CTS coupe and it looks great, easy to apply and remove. Does leave a lot of dust but it wipes off with a fresh towel. No more Zaino, Blackfire is better.

The Blackfire Wet Diamond All Finish Paint Protection gives your paint a new level of protection and an ultra sharp reflection that highlights every square inch of your paint. This formula uses newly developed crystalline polymers, which help reflect light similar to how a diamond does, creating an unbelievably luminous and eye catching shine. It's designed to create the illusion of wet paint, hence the name Wet Diamond and it was formerly known as Blackfire Wet Diamond with Polycharger. Just one application makes the paint look much glossier with a significantly deeper reflection. Don't forget about the long lasting protection as well with the new Polycharger additive. Polycharger is a set of ingredients already mixed in with the Wet Diamond that helps interlock and cross link polymers, instead of having the polymers just rest next to each other. This helps the polymers form an ultra tight bond with your clear coat that gives your paint relentless protection. You can expect your paint to repel moisture, UV rays, industrial fall out, road grime and more for at least 4 to 6+ months. It applies very easily by hand or with a buffer and either method will leave the paint extremely slick and glossy. Few if any products offer such significant protection, sharp reflection and ease of use.
 
I use Poorboys Nattys Blue Paste Wax thats chemically charged for darker colors like black cars. Best stuff I've use thus far and I've tried many things from chemical guys to Meguiars.

I was a big believer in using waxes to hide imperfections... until I did more research. A wax that claims to hide/fix imperfections is doing just that- hiding them. They're loaded up with fillers that will eventually wear off. Your best bet would be to actually get the swirls/scratches out of the paint, and then properly wash and care for your paint so that you don't put those swirls/scratches back in. I've seen first hand what kind of difference this makes and it is well worth the work. I can post pics if anybody wants to see and give you a link on how to do this... but again, this is all my 2 cents. I hope this doesn't come across as me trying to bash any of y'alls methods/practices.... I just like letting people know this kinda stuff. :good:
 
Post a link on how to do this..

There's a video series on Youtube that can walk you through it step-by-step. Look up Junkman's paint correction.

I already did this a long time ago its called polishing lmao

Nobody said it was anything new lol Maybe there are other people out there (like myself) who had never considered/heard of this until someone else pointed it out. Just spreading the knowledge!
