    Looking forward to the reviews.

    Would be nice if this offered some sort of marr resistance. I have a jet black truck that is nearly impossible to keep swirl free.
    Use this and then lay down Cquartz.

    That's my game plan! Got a whole 50ml sealed box of CQ UK, and I sure ain't gonna put it on the next door old ladies car! LOL

    The Tahoe will again "be covered in class"! By the time I get through, the CQuartz Layer will be thicker than the entire paint job! LOL

    It should do something, plus you could follow up with CQuartz. If you want to reduce marring, and swirling, that 1-2 punch should be the answer.

    I know black, I've owned black. Carpro I believe will make your life a whole lot easier.

    But why use this, go straight to a wash, iron x, clay, polish, and Cquartz.

    I'm in the desert here, who in their right mind would want a black vehicle? I would, if it was a Mecum auction clean, number correct '67 Vette for $30K! LOL Yeah, I know, keep dreaming!

    The 1974 Vette, like my buddy Tom in Wisconsin would say, would be the last Vette I would ever own, with the ugly bumpers front and rear.

    1973 was the last decent looking year, at least it had a chrome bumper in back.

    My high school buddy Tom, who I bought my '67 ray from in 1977 died two weeks ago.

    He was 61, and his wife said he was 70 lbs. He was attacked-blindsided in his own garage-shop in 2007 by two assailants. Left him for dead, a vicious brutal beating, with brain damage.

    Tom owned more vettes than I owned cars, from 55 to 73, 55's, 57's ,58's, nomads, el caminos, Camaros. Chevelles, a chevy man to the bone. And he was capable of doing ground up restos.

    The wife has been left with an extensive collection, turds are coming out of the woodwork as I type to buy them. And the dead mint '55 Bel Air he had since high school, my '68 Camaro SS396 I sold him, a '69 Camaro SS Maroon, mint, and a barn full of other mint cars. I figure a $400K collection easily, just sitting.

    They didn't call my buddy Tom "Minter" for nothing!

    Here's Tom on the left, his wife, and by buddy Randy who I bought the 68 SS396 Camaro from. Randy's dead too, died of Bone Cancer 17 years ago.
