Black is not a color, it's a full time job

Ive used the black box on my streetglide twice now and really like the outcome. It leaves a nice deep glow type of shine to it. Just make sure u got plenty of microfiber clothes. I use one for each different step. And one to wipe everything after im done just to make sure its clean and streak free. The detailer in it dies streak but if your only applying that use 2 clothes 1 for initial wipedown after ts sprayed and 1 after that to remove the streaks. The whole kit works good at even just removing bug splatters from the fairing and the ocassional boot scuff on the saddle bags lids. Give it a wirl you wont regret it imho

I love the stuff. Granted, I keep my paint in great shape, but it's a quick freshen up after normal use. I try to use it after every wash. Using the spray to remove the wax seems to really deepen the shine.

I bought it because they were out of meguirs- thought it worked nice- the swirls came out and it was very shiney-- stained under my fingernails- wear gloves.

Used it on my black Porsche and my bike. I'm a Mother's fan myself and couldn't tell any remarkable difference other than my hands were black. Went back to Mother's syn.
