Default Black . Turtle Waxpaint swirl marks

I have used Turtle wax color match liquid polish on several vehicles over the years with good results on filling in small swirl scratches. I see Turtle wax still makes the liquid in a bottle, but now also makes a spray detailer for black in the "color match" Have any of you had any experiance with either the liquid or spray detailer on a black finish?

Not yet, but i will be getting some soon. There are lots of reviews on youtube.

Search...... "black turtle wax" on youtube, all car how-to's.....but you get the idea.

Looks like it works pretty good.

Black bike = Tutle Wax Black Box. Shine so bright you can comb your hair in it. All swirl marks and small scatches gone.

I use a product called "GatorGlo" to clean and polish. Has done a great job of "smoothing out" and swirl scratches. Worth checking out!

As someone else mentioned, I started using the turtle wax black box kit. It works great! Read the directions though, you take it off diff. than regular wax. It's all I use now. Kit lasts a long time also.
