black paint wet look
Is there a product that is made specifically for a wet look on black paint. I posted a pic of my truck here : http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/...ml#post1174410
I finished sealing and waxing with klasse and collinite products but just wondering. It looks and feels great right now.I love the look when its wet (im sure everyone does). But, that was 2 days worth of work. Looking for an easier and faster way for in between waxes,sealings etc Thanks

Re: black paint wet look
I have a dark dark blue truck. When I dry I use Aquawax and that gives me a wet look for about a week. I daily drive my truck so I put about 350 miles a week on it, up and down a dirty parkway...

Re: black paint wet look
On my black car, I've gone two ways to retain the wet look.
1. Wash every couple of weeks/as needed and follow up with a spray wax product like Meg's Ultimate Quick Wax (never tried Aquawax)
2. Wash the vehicle with Detailer's Power Wash. The product has carnauba wax mixed in and has almost ended my need for a spray wax.
It really comes down to the look you are after and which product(s) get you to that result.

I maintain BFWD on my black BMW. I am now using Pinnacle Crystal Mist QD after every wash and dry and it looks amazingly wet after. I also like the fact it retains its brilliance for maybe half the week.

I've never used this, but I'm tempted to:
3M Perfect It Show Car Paste Wax, 3m 39526, creates an ultra high gloss finish, with long-lasting protection!
Many people use this product in Brazil, and the claim is 'WET' look. We also have a Made in Brazil version, and a Made in USA version.
Although the Brazilian product is cheaper and made with Brazilian raw material, here they say the Made in USA version (expensive, and made with American raw material) is a lot better...
However, it's a 'relatively old' product, so I can't say if the Hype still persists, or if there's something much better.
If anyone has some info on this product, please, let me know,
Kind Regards.

Re: black paint wet look
For the wet look you are going to be looking for an oily wax like Pinnacle Souveran. but it will attracted dust and not last very long.
There are a few sealants that have more of a glow than a brilliant shine like KSG.

Re: black paint wet look
Son1c Phoenix gave me GREAT results! As Troy pointed out, an "oily" wax will give you that wet look. T1 Carnauba definitely goes hand in hand with that!
BUT your request is for an "in-between" W&W product. There is no real option on the market to "revive" the wax layer until the next time you wax it again. You could use V07 or Reload (diluted) as a gloss enhancer inbetween but.....

Troy is spot on, an oily wax or a product such as Meguiar's #7 glaze will make the paint appear as if it's just been sprayed. It's temporary as it contains no protection whatsoever but wet looking it will be!.

Re: black paint wet look
I also notice no matter what wax I use
The wet look seems only last few days

AutoGlym Super Resin Polish (SRP) topped with either Menzerna Power Lock or Collinite 915 Marque D'Elegance or both. If you guys don't get SRP, Poorboys Blackhole can be used as a substitute.
