And she's finally worthy of the "weekend cruise". By Tuesday she will be totally wasted again but that's the nature of the (black) beast!

Sorry Glen, I posted it once before but forgot to list it here... Adams pink car wash followed by MX7 water spot remover then: Mothers swirl and scratch remover (step 1), and Mothers pure carnuba wax (step 2).

I will try your method as soon as I can order the good (black) stuff...

Cheers,

Mike C

looks good... stay with what you like!

If you want to amp it up a bit more, realize if you are in a warmer climate, like below the mason dixon line, carnuba will wash off very easily, it's only good for a month or two, sealants are multi month...also, any full finishing polish (from any mfr) will get you a bit more gloss than your swirl remover....( and still get the swirls out)
