Looks very nice.

So in basic terms, what are the "signature" or unique characteristics of each one of these three paste waxes? Based on ya`lls experience with them.

Red- ???
Blue- ???
Black- ???

First you have to remember that this is all subjective to each person`s view .....

Most of what you see below is accurate ...

I will leave that to the king...or PB..I just barely used blue on this car during this thread a few weeks ago.

To me,

Black: dark liquid depth (smooth deep shine )
Red: adds a bright pop, enhances flake IMO (enhances colors, not so great on concealing so is best applied last or on good paint)
Blue ? Duno just used it once then topped with Red later that day.

I`d agree except to the Blue ..lol ... rest of answer below...

I feel getting the beta nattys black last winter ruined experiencing blue for me since black is one of my favorite waxes.

First you have to understand why Blue came out after White ... It was designed to hide minor swirls and scratches while giving a deep shine and not fully muting the metal flake in some paints. .. White does not hide too much at all ... So when you received the Black before owning the Blue you skipped a "look" ... The Black is going to reflect even more and does have better filling but can certainly mute more than the blue...
When it comes to layering, which I believe was the topic ... using various combinations can alter the gloss and or depth, but they all look good to me

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder

Blue = deep, rich pool of oil
Red = Bright blingy shine


Only used black a couple of times, imho it`s look is a combo of both, but not quite as deep or rich

well stated Poorboy.

So I guess I should be using more blue in that case because I LOVE my flake- even though I don`t feel that Black really mutes it much IMO

I have seen black fill some pretty decent marring with two coats

(and I need to get the white one of these days too)
