Hi,we are new to Detail City and the art of detailing. We have a triple black "73 "Buick Centurion.The car is is excellent conditiion but I am not happy with the finish after the last waxing. I really need some advice on what to use to get a knock out shine. Can you also tell me what to use on my black vinyl top.
Wizard Black Renew was recommended but I didn`t think it held up very well.
This is all new to us ,we have only had the car for 2 1/2 yrs but have really gotten into the enjoyment of going to car shows. Now I want to give the car the look it deserves.
Thanks for your help ,it is appreciated. :)

Post a picture and we can help you make product choices a lot faster and with greater accuracy as to what will help it best. If a picture is not feasible, ill ask a couple of ?`s. Is the paint swirled, dull, non "wet looking? Are there scratches that need to be taken care of? What about the last waxing dont you like?

Thanks for the help, I am also new at computers so I am not sure how to post a picture.
The wax job left swirls and did not have the wet look I was hoping for.Yes there are a few places that are not actually scratch marks but like the wax had been scraped off.I hope this gives you enough info .Again thank you so much for your help.

I have founf that 303 protectant is some of the best stuff you can put on your top. It make the color come back and last a really long time. YOu might have to but a few coats on to get to the desired color. But the stuff is great.
