Default Wax/polish recommendation--Pig Snot??

I have always used Pig Snot on my blue sporster, very satisified with it. But it looks like I will be going with black for my next bike. Anyone with experience using Pig Snot, especially on black??? Anything that works better and is just as easy?? (I looked at the Zanio's website, I don't think I'm smart enough to follow all those steps) Thanks..donald

My wife just bought a bottle of pig snot and she did our black Heritage, She liked it so much I think if the bottle wasn't so big she would have brought it up stairs and put in her toy drawer.

If I can do it you can. It's basic once you get past all the fluff they put in their instructions. Just usedthe Zaino productsand their incredible. I have a white and gray bike (pearl paint) and it came alive. Kept thinking how awesome this would be on a darker vivid paint. I did the strip wash, dry, clay bar, Z-7 wash, dry, and 3 coats of Z2 and Z6 inabout aleisurely 3 1/2 hours. Well worth it.
