    Could use some recommendations on great products that will keep my black looking as good as I can.

    It’s been a long time since I did anything other than the basic drive up car washes.

    I want to start off right with this new truck.

    I’ve had really good results with chemical guys black car kit and used their clay bar kit first. Took out all swirls and small scratches the first time I used it. It’s been 6mo and I’m about to do it again.

    We tried it on my brothers black accord that’s never been detailed in two years and it looked amazing. He forgot his car had speck in the paint lol

    That sounds great.


    I love the look of a black vehicle when they are clean and have that deep wet look.

    I figured there were quality products out there to help keep them looking that way.....I’ve just been out of the market for so long.

    Went to their youtube videos.


    Many dollars later I have a great supply of Chemical Boys products for my Taco, RAV-4 and Jeep.


    Damn.



    Just damn.



    Money well spent..............I hope.




    Picked up leather stuff for wife's car, too.

    EDIT:

    I'll have to say.....I'm impressed.


    Hit it with the V07 soap using a low cost foam cannon and then rinsed off.


    Used a microfiber towel and kept it sprayed down with V07 quick detailer.


    Black truck with no water spots and minimal effort on my part.

    This stuff worked great.
