Whats the best product to give Black its deepest shine....?

[Dan_BlackSRi]

As I am currently machine polishing my car, now is the ideal oppertunity to get it looking spot on, I have seen black cars on here with a deeper shine than my Meguires GC and AG EGP has ever done, so...... what stuff is best to use on a black car...????

i don't polish my black Vec but on my Black Bike i use Auto Glym super resin polish and it brings the paint work up nice. You can see all the fleck sparkle in the sunlight. Gets rid of small scratches too.

Although i have only used 3 polishes and have not really noticed the finish to the end result

I have used SRP and then the EGP but it still lacks that "something"...... SRP only masks light scratches and swirls as its a filler (rather than a cutter) - but is good to use for the quick option by hand.

Theres not a lot of paint work on a bike so cracking out an electric polisher is a bit OTT. ;^) I don't bother with car as its covered in stone chips and small scratches. it would take me ages to get it to how i would like it, and then i'd be a gibbering wreck everytime it got scratched again. looks good enough from ten paces away though. :-)

Thats what mine WAS like... used to annoy the hell out of me, so I decided a machine polish was needed - so I did it myself - its almost perfect now (just need to give it a true shine), but you are right - I sh*t myself now whenever I park it

Funny thing is the wife still craps herself when she accidently scratches our cars. i'm just past caring. I use to be really OCD on keeping the outside and inside clean but now i've got a little un and 2 dogs, i've admitted defeat. Its clean just not 3 hours worth of making the job look even better.

Black Hole and Banana Armor are rated highly. There is a thread on DW for each colour with product used and pic. Give us a tick and i'll see if I can find it.

We have a 16 month old boy (and a girl on the way) and I refuse to give in... just takes longer than it used it - thats all

But the Mrs is keen to give me time on the polisher as she see's £££ in her eyes as I could do it as a side - they are useful after all (polishers, not wives (hope she doesn't see this )).
