I just purchased a (new) Metallic Black vehicle (silly me)... :rolleyes:
Just wondering what you black vehicle owners are using for the best protection against UV and water spot/bird dropping etching in the paint surface.
thanks for your feedback

I use Zymol wax or Meguires Gold Glass. (I think that's what it is called) Either way it's a huge pain in the a$$... :D :D

A GARAGE!!!!
J/K.... I have had 4 black trucks and 1 black car and they were ALL a pain to keep nice. Now ALL my vehicles are white.
I have always just used Meguiars for regular waxing and 3M for paint cleanup. Works for me.

KILR I believe suggested the new Meguirs stuff in the purple bottle. It works great on everything i have used it on sor far including a black suv i have.

As long as you use quality products routinely you can't go wrong.
Many car enthusiasts swear by Zaino products.
One good source of info and products: http://www.carcareonline.com/howto.aspx
