Turtle wax black box
 

ok so i have a 2004 obsidian black coupe. idk how many of you had a problem with small scratches or swirl marks. i couldn't get anything to fill them in and not paying 40 bucks from nissan for 5 oz of touch up paint. however the turtle wax black box actually filled them in and masked them almost completely away from the naked eye. its a actually black wax and conditioner for your car. comes in a complete kit with the applicator pad only thing you need is the microfibers. awesome and if interested i can take pictures. too much light right now outside or i would have already

haha you should take pics in the light! but yeah, please do take some. i have a friend that used that stuff on his black tacoma and he said it was ridiculously messy. how was it for you to use?

i got some pictures i took when i did half of the door. yes it was a mess but after i saw it get on my hands i went and put on latex gloves and that solved the mess issue. to be honest it is the only thing i have found that will actually help to mask and hide ur scratches. will have pics to post tonight

Do yoh have any before/after pics???

I saw this and debated in my head about it. My wallet won and i passed on it.

A glaze will do the exact same thing without the mess and for less money. It should also last longer. EZ-Creme glaze, Danase Wet glaze are good examples.

Waxes are supposed to be for paint protection against the environment.
If you want products that were meant to fill in scratches/swirls temporarily, you should look for detailing glaze.
These do a better job at filling in swirls/scratches than waxes. Most glazes can be topped with a wax after curing.
But, if you want to actually remove the swirls/scratches instead of temporarily filling them in, you should invest in a DA random orbital buffer, polishing pads, and good polish.

Sorry, but whenever I see products like these on shelves glorifying how well they work, how easy it is, and how cheap they are... I know they're lying.
Nothing beats a good buffer, polishing pad, and grade-A polishes.

ok well here is the reasons i got this kit.
1. To help with the scratches and swirl(which it did)
2. It is a wax as well that is the second step in the box.
3. They also give two spray detailer tube's which are meant for touch-ups and in between washes which will be good for shows.

as far as before and after pictures yes i will get those

ya it is kinda pricey. i got it from work so i got 20 percent off. but its gonna last at least two more times and i haven't even used the detailer yet. wanted to get some pics but its going to rain today so car is staying in garage.

good coverage man! i didn't even think about taking pics during my whole entire process. but how many more uses do you think u'll get out of that one box?

great pics look good

Thanks and I've used to kit about 3 times already and theres still enough for about at least 2 more uses

ya i kinda figured after doing the first one id have two or three more uses left. but you agree that it hid the scratches pretty well?

it sure does

ya i was definately impressed and happy with the black box and only wax imma use from now on. thanks for the input and making this thred halfway decent
