Ebized Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 A good day for a clean -quite cool but after a wash down, a bit of poorboys then some dodo juice wax and with the sun out here is that elusive fleck and round the other side saw this old taking my pic . Black may be a pig to keep clean but when it is there is no better shine At least that has got the worst of the winter crud off today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Good work my man. Dodo is excellent at making the flecks "pop" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 That shine & reflection is fantastic!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixy Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 I used to use einzett glanz wax on my CTR which really made the blue flake come out of the black. You're right, black is a pig but its the best when spotless. Who's that strange looking guy with the camera colin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Superb Colin. I spend most of the day trying to make Dads Solid black Range Rover look good before he gets back from Dubai tomorrow. I sent him an MMS message to his mobile much like the one of your head to show him it was looking alright! Black is hard work but VERY satisfying to work with.

Sarnie Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Colin, Did you get Victor Meldrew's autograph after he had finished taking photo's of your car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebized Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 Colin, Did you get Victor Meldrew's autograph after he had finished taking photo's of your car? Nah, didn't bother - the old git could barely hold the camera let alone write anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shuck Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Colin, Did you get Victor Meldrew's autograph after he had finished taking photo's of your car? Nah, didn't bother - the old git could barely hold the camera let alone write anything poor guy, I hope you were kind to him whilst you ushered him away from the car. Excellent job, that fleck is excellent and so hard to do with black cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_Quads Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 very nice - so prefer the newer black over the flat black I have. That said I agree - when clean & polished you can't beat black for looking awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I know of another black car owner that purchased black hole glaze...... I was going to buy it for my dads car to see how it was. I need to make him pay for it though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cara Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Excellent, that is some shine! Black is such hard work to keep looking good, but when it is it's stunning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 I know of another black car owner that purchased black hole glaze...... I was going to buy it for my dads car to see how it was. I need to make him pay for it though! I'm using the white diamond glaze (for lighter cars) and that's what makes the difference on the finish and fleck on mine.
