    Unconventional Process

    Today I decided to take the day off of detailing, over the last two days I`ve done two cars and one Harley.

    So I S&W my car down, then a fresh coat of Nattys..Looks good, then I got the bug to put a coat of BH glaze on. I really love the look of glaze on the car, its shiny as a diamond..My thinking is I have a lot of layers on the car, so using a glaze as a topper for appearance would be interesting.

    Thoughts anyone?

    Looks great but I did notice that the glaze is a dust magentic...that`s a draw back for sure...I`m going to do a cold water rince in the AM to see if that helps

    I did a test section on a neglected black finish, and BH does wonderful at bringing back that deep black, also hides minor swirls pretty well, not to mention, it seemed to do a nice amount of cleaning?

    Black hole is probably my favorite chemical in my arsenal. I love how it looks by hand or even by machine. It really adds that extra pop if I do not have time to polish and perfect for people who are cheap and don`t want to pay for a 2 step.

    funny i just washed clayed and cleaned my paint w/ p21 paint cleaner, added a coat of meg`s 16, wiped down the next day w/ surf city hot rod detailer, love the stuff, then the other nite i went into the garage and used pb`s wmf and topped it w/ a coat of ck cmw buffed off w/ ocw the car looks amazeing, like it was dipped in oil. just thought it was funny how all of us do things that are considered unconventioal but get good results.

    Re: Unconventional Process

    So I did a full correction on my malibu and ran out of time to add any LSP after 2 thick coats of BH (so thick the car was purple). This was 3 weeks ago and the car actually is still looking wet but it really is not beading but I would say for a solid 2 weeks (after a thick coat) BH stood up against 3 straight days of rain and 200 miles of driving a week.

    I wouldn`t say it would be a good LSP but it does last longer than I would have ever expected.

    I think it does. Mild though and possibly pad dependant.
