Shine??
Hi All
I am looking to get the best shine I can on my Obsidian Black S500. When I clean it, don't get me wrong, it comes up lovely, wheels, paint etc etc.
But working in the city, you see some absolutely sparkling motors, I especially notice sparkling S-classes and think to myself everytime, what do they use????
Any ideas would be welcome, of course the least amount of work required, the better....

I own a detail shop in NYC. Here is a quick DIY to get optimum shine on black. Wash car with car wash soap. Clay the car, follow with a polish using the PC Orbital and a finishing pad, then glaze it and follow with a carnuba wax. This is a quick, general and non-abrasive way for optimum shine on dark colors.
