What's best for black

[DrivingImpressions]

Wondering what products are best for black. I use a PC and currently using Pinnacle XMT 3 step process. The paint has some minor surface scratches. Looking to get scratches out and get some real depth. The cars are a 03 Lexus 400 and a 05 Lexus 430. Also a bright red 02 Lexus IS300, looking to add depth to that. On the IS I have been using DP Polish and Topping with DP Max Wax.

What about prep? You are only talking LSP, just the last 10% of the look.

I like Zaino best on black. As far as polishes go I would go with ZPC or Menzerna.

I would wash clay then use Blackfire polish seal with Jetseal 109 then top with 50/50

For my black car, I usually do one of these...



Menzerna SIP, ZAIO, Z-5 Pro, Z-2 Pro, Z-CS, next Day Z8



or



Menz SIP, PO106FF, Danase Wet Glaze, CG 50/50



or



Menz SIP, RMG, EX-P



All 3 looks really nice!!

If you go the Zaino route, try Z-AIO, Z-5pro, and Z-8. Awesome results.

Thanks for all the input, I wash then clay the entire car. The cars look good, but the black ones seem to have the something missing. I will search out all the above information. Really appreciate everyones input. I will try to post some pics of my red Lexus IS300 soon. Thanks again.
