fellow black or dark colored charger ect owners i have a question

[Charger-Bodie]

just about done with my charger its the first black car ive had and im just wondering what others have found to be a good wax or polish for keeping the finish swirl free and for those pesky fine scratches that are always more noticable on black and dark colored car thanks for the advice.............ps ill be finishing the paint out with 3m perfect it 3000 im juist curios on the routine polish jobs that i know im in for with keeping black looking fresh 

[Sinister68]

I've always used either Nu Finish or Zymol.  I've tried a few others (the WORST was that "Wet" crap) but I keep coming back to Zymol.

This Cuda owner uses Zaino Z5 on his. http://www.cuda-challenger.com/cc/index.php?topic=28389.msg283384#msg283384  I'm a firm believer in Zaino's as well.  Just 69 C, our mod, got me hooked on the stuff.  I figured if it was good enuf for his ride, it would compliment mine. 
Just look at that Cuda, the paints looks like it was just poured on.

I use a product called Auto Auction Prep. by Prowax. The stuff works great using a buffer or by hand... It's a bit pricey but very well worth it...   I like all their products.  Here is a link:   http://www.prowax.com/polish.shtml

best product   i have used  for the last 20 years -  after machine polishing ( mopping)  &  before waxing  is  3M imperial handglaze .

I think you have to be a member on Cuda-Challenger.com to see pics. I turned that "feature" off here but I know some places need to worry about bandwidth.

Zaino Brothers........  PERIOD.    I've used about everything in existance and while Zaino is relatively expensive, I have found it to be vastly superior to anything else I've used (3M, Zymol, Meguire's, Mothers and others) .   I use the entire system, and yes, its time consuming, but the shine is amazing.   What truely amazed me was its LASTING power.   I live in Colorado, at an altitude of 8000' and with our sun and weather, nothing has ever lasted until now.    Also has held up to magchloride, tar, and numerous other random crap I've picked up off the road.

For Compounding, buffing, polishing, and glazing, I still use 3M.  But all my (after paint) products are Zaino.   

[Charger-Bodie]

any input on what to buy to get the best results from zaino and tips for application woul also be nice thanks brian

Brian, the FAQ section on thier site explains it all

the finish swirl free and for those pesky fine scratches that are always more noticable on black and dark colored car

One of the downfalls of a dark colored car....higher maintenance.
But it's sure hard to beat a BLACK Charger!

I was tipped off last year on here about Zaino products, since I first used it I have never used anything else.

[charger490]

[Charger-Bodie]

2 zaino 5 with zfx
...........ill let everyone know how i turn out later

[dkn1997]

a really good product to compliment any was/polish is mr clean autodry.  my brother inlaw uses it on his black corvette and gets absolutely no water spots on it at all.  those water spots  get ground into the paint, making swirls.  obviousely, it prevents them, nothing you can do after it's swirled already besides claybar, handglaze, etc..

I have 2 black cars and a dark blue car.  The two waxes I use are Mothers and Meguiars.  The best wax I have found is the "Meguiars Clear Coat."  It is about $13 per bottle if you can find it in a store, otherwise it is available online.  It hides all the small scratches, has an amazing shine, and lasts for long time.  I would never use Nu Finish as for some reason it just never looked good on any car I ever tried it on.  KIT is another good wax.

[Charger1973]

Zaino is the by far the best I have ever seen/used.

[Charger-Bodie]

for all of the recomendations i say thank you for those who recommended Zaino a HUGE Thank You!!!!!!!!!!! WOW ive been doing this for a long time and it takes a lot for a product to REALLY impress me but that stuff does it very very nice stuff!!
