Detailing advice for a black box

[woodsman]

Apparently, our cars have a water-based clearcoat. My car had so much haze that I wet-sanded it ( 1500 and 2000?) and was amazed at how soft it was. I've wet sanded cars after a repaint and even though the clear was not yet cured , it was harder than the clear on my Porsche. I then used a glaze, sealant and 2 coats of wax. My car now looks better than new and only a micro mitt touches her delicate skin from now on. high speed air drying of course.
Here in Canada all the body shops have switched over to water-based base coats but still use a catalyzed clear. Damn Porsche for being so 'advanced'! I love catalyzed clear!

Personally the best finish you can give a car is Zaino Bros., especially on Black. Check them out, absolutely fabulous product, I won't let anything else touch my cars. I used to have a Black 350Z and people always told me it looked like a big black mirror, and they were right.

Looks stunning on my Slate Grey Metallic Boxster.

I use Zaino as well with good results. Search my thread "detailing the box".
