To all the CCD -> QD users with black cars...

How do you do it?



All of last week I tried this method and all I got out of it were light swirls galore!



I'm going to try WAUD after spraying off the car (not washing, just spraying off).
 
I've been at messin' with black vehicles for over 40 years. (My first was a 1964 Chevelle SS 327 black two door hardtop.) All black vehicles swirl, mar, etc. anytime you move dirt or dust on them. I NEVER use a QD unless it is to touch up streaks after washing the vehicle. In my opinion, using a California Duster is even more risky. Always (again always) use a car shampoo with plenty of lubricity to avoid swirls. Also have a good supply of swirl remover on hand. :D

My problem with the CCD on black was that it left parafin wax residue that won't come off, even with a QD. I need to give it a wash to remove all the wax. I've also used Quikshine and an MF to dust and have not noticed any swirling or marring, but I don't go for more than a couple of days without QDing, otherwise there is more dust than I feel comfortable with. I'm going to give Poorboy's S&W a try on this car as well. I've used it before but not on black.



Ah, the joys of a black car. This will probably be my only one. :rolleyes:

A damp MF pulled lightly across the surface with the 2 lead corners removes all dust. I rinse in a bucket as I go along. After that you can dry with a waffle or QD or WAUD.
