You got that right! Black has always been a love hate affair with me.
I am still learning
I finally found out that it almost totally impossible to get a decent finish with a traditional store bought slow speed buffer unless you willing to spend a whole lot of time with it. Even then you may never get to the finish you want. They work good enough on light colored and metallic finishes but horrible on black if you want that mirror finish.
High speed buffer so far has been the only thing that works for me on black finishes. But it is also easy to burn the paint if not done properly
