Hi, just wondering what everyone is using on there Black Car's these day's, What is holding up to the elements, Whats easy to put on and take off, What really makes the paint shine and look deep and wet? Thanks

 

I use Poorboys EX-P, then I top it with Chemical Guys Pete's '53. Really gives it a wet look.
I don't find that wax hold up to the elements, that's why I use the Poorboys sealant.

 

You use Sealant first then add Wax?

 

Yes. I apply the sealant (with PoorBoys, I wait 45 minutes then wipe off). After the sealant is removed I wax the car.

 

I just figured it would be wax first then sealer.

 

Sealant won't bond to wax due to the oils in the wax. So sealant first. Then a coat of wax, this is optional.

 

To ccarney...where can those two items be purchased? My son has a black BWM 650. I need to wax it before winter.

 

I order direct from Car Wash, Wax, Polishes, Microfiber Towels and Best Auto Detail Supplies - Chemical Guys Professional Car Care Products - Wholesale and Retail for the Pete's '53. The Poorboys products I get from We Are Car Care -- Car Wax, Car Polish, Auto Detailing Supplies, Car Buffers & Car Accessories Store . Autogeek is $7 bucks to ship for the next 12 or so hours. Might be better buying everything from Autogeek. I have noticed that amazon is now selling chemical guys stuff, could check there also.

 

Hey JG,
I use collinite. It is what the detailers use. More so before waxing use a paint prep then sealer and wax. I have a 2013 accord coupe right out of the showroom I waxed it and the wax wouldn't last one rain storm. I then spoke to autogeeks in Florida. They recommended paint prep paint seal and then wax. I did the prep seal and wax back in April haven't re waxed it since and every time it rains you get that nice beading effect when you drive.

 

Never heard of the stuff, I take it I order it off line, Ill look into it thanks
