Colored Car Wax

Colored Car Wax

it does what you should expect it to. No, it doesn't magically erase all scratches and make it as if you have a new paint job fresh from the body shop. What it does do is help minimize the appearance of fine surface scratches from wiping the paint with cloths that weren't lint or dust free. This is primarily evident on dark solid colors. My black Impala was riddled with fine swirl marks all over it from whatever the previous owner washed and dried it with (looked like 600 sandpaper) but since putting 3 coats of this TW black on the car and lightly buffing it off with a 100% cotton towel it has regained a nice slippery smooth feel and look. Now when lights hit it in the driveway at night it doesn't look like it's covered in spider webs anymore.
The drawback to using it is you definitely need gloves because this stuff will dye everything and anything it gets on BLACK, including your hands and everything you get near.
I have learned that it needs to be put on relatively heavy and let it dry for a while. Stay out of sunlight and don't do it after driving, you will end up with a caked on coating on the hood you'll never get off. Do it in the garage in the morning when it's cool. Use a heavy cotton bath towel folded over into a square to lightly buff it off.
