So here's another black vehicle that got the new Black Wax
This was a basic detail with wax and I opted for the new Black Wax.
Now my first experience with BW gave me great polishing results and I've been expecting those same results and it just hasn't happened. I was thinking of this wax as more of a polish then a wax.
So with my mindset of this being a wax and not so much a polish is working out great and my customers are loving it too!

Just a few pics but you can see the results are great.

Thank you very much for the kudos!

Yes I used my Flex, I don't false advertise! lol.
My Flex is my goto right now until I get my Rupes in a few weeks.
Then I'll throw all of my other machines away!

Meg's Soft Buff Pad.
Sorry for not saying more when I wrote this up. I was just making a "quickie post". I had a long weekend of work but this truck is a rare find and it came out very nice so I had to share it with my new friends.

This Black Wax is very interesting. Your paint was definitely swirled up before applying, yet looks incredibly improved afterwards.

I was under the impression that this product was primarily an excellent cleaner, and secondly a polish, with added protection.

Cleaners don't remove swirls, so something in the formula is really doing a great job in either covering them up (filling), or removing some of them, or a combination of both.

Jeeze for about $10, that is very impressive indeed, whatever its formula.

How would you rate its' cut and gloss compared to:
XMT 360?
Optimum PolySeal?
GPS?
Is the product worked to a haze, or worked clear with minimal residue?
And finally, any dusting?
I'm also thinking it's a sealant, rather than a wax, per se. A better option for DD's in these heavy pollen days of spring

I haven't used any of those products.
Meg's say to think of this wax like carnauba.
It has Montan Wax in it which comes from fossilized plant wax from over 2 million years ago.
I apply it like a wax, do the rest of the car then wipe clean with no dust, it's a wax not a polish/compound
