Unless you used a PC or orbital to remove the fine marring in the clear.. the spider webbing is still there.

What all did you do? Looks good

I love OB sedans (and black cars in general for that matter) because IMO they look the best when washed, waxed and polished correctly.

very true, it was only possible to 'minimize' the sratches.

nothing too special, only washed twice and waxed twice, with an undercoat of 'scratch x'.

Not the best pics to admire a detail from.

Black is great, except for 98% of the time when it needs to be washed.

Detaliling & Dark Colors.......Nice!

Yea, keeping any dark colored car perfect is a full time job. The soft clear
coat Nissan supplys us with sure doesn't help. Your sedan looks good with
those gold wheels, at least the end result will be great when finished!

I'm giving another vote for OB to being the top choice. Now if only Infiniti would bring back black pearl.
