Best wax for the black Z?

Junkman2008

First off, you do realize that wax DOES NOT make paint shine, right?

Wax is used to protect the shine that you get from polishing the paint. Polishing is where the shine comes from. Carnuba paste waxes can give your shine more depth, however, no wax is going to make the paint shine anymore than it does after you finish polishing it.

If you put wax on your paint and it causes it to shine, the only thing that you have done is removed a bunch of dirt off your paint and scratched it up in the process.

Another thing. There is no such thing as wax that is made for a specific color. The wax has no clue as to what color the car is that you are using it on. It is going to do what it does, regardless of the color of the car. You can't whisper to the bottle and tell it what color you're applying it on.

Thus, what ever wax works best for black will work best for any color. The color doesn't matter, it's what's in the bottle that counts. Now my question to you is do you want to use a professional product or some OTC stuff? That is going to make a big difference in the answer I would give and the price you will have to pay.

I think there may be waxes that are not as optically clear which would hide scratches. Those would be better for black. While a white car where maybe you cant see any scratches at all, you want something that is just clear.
