    I've used Black Box and it was a LOT of work. Results were good but not OMG. Didn't last long.

    I read the Zaino instructions. Lots of work too. Don't think it will hide white scratches and nicks.

    1500 wet sand and 3M machine polish buff is the best thing I've done to the paint, ever.
    I also bought the paint sealant dealers use because I had bird crap etch into the hood I just had painted last year. I just wish it was black like shoe polish and stayed put in the nicks, etc.

    Blackfire Wet Diamond paint sealant. Best for black bar none and couldnt be easier to apply. I know I had a side business detailing other peoples cars for 8 years not to mention I have 3 black vehicles myself. I hate black but love it whens its clean....for 2 minutes.

    Duragloss 105 10$ a bottle, quick detail with their aqua wax or quick detailer between washes. Very very easy to use. I don't have a lot to time to waste using products that require 20 applications over 3 days.

    The black before the duragloss, this is when I got the car and had it delivered. It had been sitting neglected. Nano skin auto scrub mitt, better than any claybar, period! Then dura gloss 105, took less than 3 hours to do. See previous pics for aftershots.

    Meguiars spray wax works wonders. They have spray wax just for black cars!

    My little guy has grown up too, now 22, thinks the black is his!

    Your day is coming!

    I am a huge Adam's Polishes fan. They make great products that are easy enough to use that any skill level can use them.

    I have pretty much their full line and the results are great. In my opinion the next step up would be buying direct from Warner Chemical and mixing my own products.

    I'm glad you brought it up. I need to strip and wax mine and you just reminded me. I've tried Zaino on a black vette and it was a mirror. A bit of work to get right but the results were ama

    Ok, so what is the latest verdict? Car show coming up... Titanium is way to hard to work with, results are great, but effort and time spend are not.

    Mothers paste wax. Have to be slow and careful or your spend hours getting it out of cracks. Or use liquid wax but doesn't leave a deep shine like the paste. Depends on how much time you want to spend, all day vs a couple hours
