I want to use it on a white car just to see if it really does make a "difference"

yes nothing special .............Don`t expect to get a wet look shine but it does last. I am a sucker for NEW products

I`m pretty sure Anthony Orosco has given this stuff a shot. Wait for his response on it.

Quote: Black Velvet will deepen the color of any dark gray or black vehicle. It also lays down a slick, protective coat of wax containing UV retardants and gloss enhancers.



~ One man’s opinion / observations ~



I would doubt its ability on even a single stage- paint system. A polyethylene clear coat is applied to a paint system to provide the paint underneath it (a) protection and (b) gloss and depth of colour, by covering it with a pigmented (coloured) wax it would look at best un-natural.

RIGHT,no depth and appeared dull just like Collinate.It beads well and you know the wax is there but not the shine that I would look for

Zymol produces a black wax in their standard product line. See California Car Cover website.
