light polish+meguiars wax turned my paint into glass
Got some crazy reflections after polishing and using multiple light coats of meguiars gold class carnuba wax. Just wanted to share some pictures. Everyone cant stop looking at my paint.. And i cant either.. Had a couple beers with my friends tonight and we chilled in my garage for 2 hours just looking at it.
My phone camera is horrible, it looks amazing in person. I cant believe it.. Only onxy black can shine like this
looks good... should also post in the detail section.. what pad did you use for polishing?
i polished it by hand. I have an applicator pad with a **** handle.

Dude its killing me too! Its soo dirty under there! Im still saving cause i want to do everything at once. Going to get the front wheels hub shaved. Rear wheels fitted with a bigger lip. All fenders slightly pulled. Then dropped just enough to get rid of the gap.
Nice job on getting that black to shine gsean. I did pretty much the same that you did a couple of weeks ago. Mine was the wash, Maguire's clay bar/spray wax and then Brazilian Carnuba that I had left over from a couple of years ago.
Im jealous! My car is pearl white and the last time I claybared and waxed my car i couldnt tell no difference at all! And yes I used meguiars also!
Its okay man.. You dont really need to wax pearl white, cause it already looks beautiful! Just wax to protect Lol i wish i had pearl white, this is my 3rd black gs second gen gs and each time i was looking for one i couldnt find one in pearl white.

Nice job on yours too! I love that wet look! Someone should make a "fresh wax" thread lol
How do you like having a black GS, I'm thinking of buying one but I've never owned a black car, is it worth it when it looks good or do you have to constantly detail it?

I have always liked the way black cars look, however they are a pain in the *** to maintain (if they are your daily). I am looking to paint my black GS white.

Hmm.. Everytime i wax it, its worth it to me. I like looking at it, and so do others. I do dust off the car with a duster everytime i get home. Black looks horrible in the sun, the dirt and dust combined with slightly faded paint really really shows and so does any scratches. I wash about once a week, and wax every 2 months.

My car is my daily.. And my wheels are black also...
Wow that looks good, and to think other spend hundreds on other products to get that shine? Ive always stuck with meguiars, mothers, and chemical guys.
