Anyone use "Black Box" by Turtle Wax

I bought this detailing kit for my 04 GT mustang, and I must say it is phenominal. It is a three step process that basically fills in alot of swirl and due to the black nature of the waxes, brings out an amazing deep black gloss shine.

It is kind of messy as the waxes due have some black coloring that comes off while waxing the paint. Make sure you wear latex gloves and this is only for black cars.

I took it a final step and sealed the detailing with Chemical Guys Jet Seal.

The kit is only $20, and you would not be disappointed

I used it because it was on sale cheap, and I am a sucker for marketing...but I have to say , it wasn't bad at all. Not a mazerna with a rotary finish, but pretty good for turtlewax.

I used it and liked it a lot. It takes some elbow grease since you are basically going over the car 3 or 4 times but it works great.

True on the gloves and only for black vehicles

instead of covering the swirls, why not get a PC, some abrasive polish, and get rid of them.

at that point, you could top with the cheapest wax out there and it would look great.

Realize that, and I have used my porter cable with mezerno products already, this Black box is very effective to for what it is. It adds a super deep gloss and it more of a quick maintenance measure more than anything else.
