Turtle Black box Wax and results (2009 4.6)

[drewbie]

Picked this up for 25$ and gave it a go. It's a 3 step process specifically for black cars.

Highly recommended. After 5 hours and a lot of elbow grease here are the results:

I believe that Meguiar's was the first to come out with a Black Wax, specifically for black or dark colored cars. Meguiar's also has White Wax for white or light colored cars. They claim its "synthetic polymers provide long lasting, durable, protection."

From reading about the Turtle Black wax, it appears to have at least some Carnauba wax in it, which means it has very good visual depth, but may require re-waxing more often than a synthetic polymer. But since both Brands have a polisher in them, don't use too often.

It does look like a very nice wax job, but being from the South, I get a little queasy any time I see a black car, especially in the summer time.

Mark, I hear you... I visited Austin in July 2012 and thought I was gonna die. Fortunately, we have a more moderate climate up here and I can always part in the shade at home.
