[QUOTE="Bullitt 3309, post: 14331789, member: 134339"] As a black car owner and long time "hobby" detailer I want to give you some of my lessons learned. 1. Learn the two-bucket wash or how to do a rinseless wash like the "Garry Dean" method. You want to not reswirl marr the finish after correcting. 2. Invest in a PC and a decent supply of good pads (compound/polish/wax). Autogeek offers very well priced combo's with pads/buffer. 3. As far as polishing compounds, stick to well known and supported brands like Meguirs 105/205, Menzurna, Wolfgang. I say this as you can find alot of info on there uses and proper breakdown at Autogeek/Autopia. I am a fan of Menzurna, been using it since 2002. 4. For the final finish, well that can be a wax or a sealant. Depends on how much work you want to put in vs durability. Some of the newest sealants offer up to 6 months protection. I stick with waxes and glazes because I love to wax my car, very therapeutic for me. Some of the newest sealants are so easy to use, CarPro has a product called Hydr02 that you spray on a wet clean surface then rinse off. The water pressure "shocks" the sealant into place and you are done for at least 90 days... I use it on my wheels. Got to love technology... Good luck and get on Autogeekonline and Autopia lots to learn! [/QUOTE]
