What's the best wax to use on black paint. My friend has a black car. He used NuFinish on it, but it leaves a white film and all the wax doesn't come off. What do you guys with black 'Stangs or cars think?
It should be noted that Meguiars Gold Class wax will stain your side trim and plastic pieces and will leave a nasty white film. I speak with experience here. You have to use a good cleaner like Mothers back to black to get the stuff off.Dave00GT said:I use McQuire's Gold Wax on both my vehicles, and its looks awesome on the Dodge! (black)
I've used this stuff before. It does a good job of masking swirls and scratches but it will fade and wear off faster than most think. If you're going to use this stuff, I recommend using it frequently or using a pure wax over the top of it.I've had no problem with the black color wax from Turtlewax.

I have been a FIRM believer in Zaino since I started using it in May. I have worked as a Detailer before my Real job for 5 years"Not that a Professional Detailer is not a Real job... just not what I went to college for!" anyway. I have used the best of the best before Liquid Glass, Finish First, Maguires, Mothers, Zymoll, ect ect... not over the counter crap! Body shop detail shop professional glaze,polishes, and waxes. Zaino has truthfully blow these away! But you MUST start with a good foundation. If you don't have a good starting point then your just adding a bandaid on bad dry paint. If you can look into your paint and you can see fine scratches under floresent lights or if your paint feels like sand paper...you need to get the can preped right first! Pay a professional to Clay and High Speed buff your car. This is VERY important. You must start with a clean slate to build on. Then start with Zaino. The more the better! In 34 coats I have gone through 2 bottles and 4 months. It is worth the effort and time. TRUST ME!!

You have to order Zaino online. I don't know if its as good as NXT wax or not.Venom_Nitrous said:Where do you buy zaino? I am in the process of using the clay bar and NTX or NXT, whatever, on my performance red stang and I love it. I mean LOVE. I just decided to get my brother a bottle of it and a clay bar for his black one. Is the NTX as good as zaino?
