Poorboys black hole glaze

[lee250]

I emailed autogeek when placing an order about a good glaze to help cover up small imperfections and they recommended Poorboys black hole. I have a blue car and so I figured it should be ok but my sister has a yellow kia soul that is in need of some tlc. What will happen if I use the black hole on the yellow car? What will happen if black hole is used on a light colored vehicle?

Your products are touching the clear coat not the colour underneath.

Thats a good point. Didn't think of that. So why is there one for dark colors and one for light colors?

I've used Blackhole on a white car and White Diamond on a black car, no issues. Used carnauba waxes claiming to be for black cars and had amazing results on white. Nothing penetrates the clear coat to touch the paint colour. Products don't have the intelligence to know whats under the clear, all work is done on the clear.

So they can sell 2 products instead of one.

Marketing. It's all about putting $$ in the sellers pocket.

Ok thanks guys. I was trying to figure out how there was a difference. Good point about marketing.

One might be a bright reflective look, while the other has more of a glow, also one might fill more then the other.

I am one of those people who has both White Diamond and Blackhole. To me I interpretated it more as using Blackhole for stronger more intense colors versus White Diamond for something like silver or light green, or tan.

Good point about marketing.

Releasing multiple products—with very minor,
cosmetic differences—and branding them
suitable for different "approaches" is a good
marketing ploy, IMO.

And...If I'm not mistaken:
Meguiar's (fairly recently) executed such a
marketing strategem when they introduced
their White/Black Waxes.

What has been your experience with these two products?

Interested to hear from someone who has experience with both.

Poor Example

Meguiar's Black Wax and White Wax have different performance attributes

Poor Example

Like hell it is!

You didn't read (more than likely couldn't
comprehend) the entirety of my posting, or you
would have seen where I included provisions for
the idiosyncrasies of products having minor, and
cosmetic differences—and being branded as suitable
for different "approaches"...

In closing:

•Nice try; but it doesn't fly!

•Best you find out now that I don't cower
and genuflect to those who attack me.

•Now go bother someone that might care about
what you ever have to say again; I sure don't.
