+++++++1 Turtle Wax Black Box is the best I've found. Unbelievable results if you use the product per the instructions...

Your paint will look like you can dip a spoon in it.

I use Eagle One Nano Wax for any color. Tried Black Box when I had a black SG - no better than Eagle One in my opinion. You can buy it at Auto Zone or Advanced Auto Parts.

I'll throw my hat in the ring for Petes 53.
Although I've heard nothing but good things about the Black Box.

I use the Turtle wax black detailer spray for a quick wipe down between wax jobs. It makes it look like you just waxed it. I use it on my black cherry and it looks amazing.

Buddy of mine has a black RG with a color matched fairing and uses nothing but Cpt Richard's bomb.

Thats about all I use as well, though I have a different color that does well with carnuba.

Yup that's what I use also....just buff the swirl from the polish with a microfiber and it's like 69 says....wet.

The best wax for black is petes 53 from chemical guys. Very expensive but hands down the best I ever used.
