Here's the real question for all you Denim Black owners - How do you care for your matte black paint?
Mine picks up every single fingerprint, and god forbid I get some type of oil drop on it - the oil spot will live there for eternity!
Wax doesn't seem to work well. I'm experimenting with some ceramic spray from Turtle Wax with decent results, but no clue how long it will last.

the PO of my bike didn't care for the paint too well - so it's practically a dark grey instead of black at this point.

Some of the detailing companies make products for matte/denim paint, check Jax Wax or Adams

Hope you enjoy it. not much is said about them here anymore. But that may be due to people selling. My Fatboy Lo is my dream bike and will not be sold or given away until i can no longer twist the throttle.
