I loved the results I always got with Zaino and Adam's products on my black WS6.

I recently used Griot's Garage Machine Polish 3 with a Porter Cable random orbital followed with Griot's Garage One Step Paint sealant, as well as Carnu-b Wax depending on my mood and my 15 year old paint has never looked better.

I use Wizard Products on my truck and motorcycle. Easy to work with and gives the black a wet look.

There are many types of wax for cars/trucks. I personally prefer the look at carnauba wax. For that I prefer either Poorboys World Natty's wax or Autogeek Pinnacle Sourveran Paste wax.

I used these product exclusively on my '99 Ford Mustang Cobra until I sold it. The paint looked like new and was slick as well wax.

I use Natty's Red on my Smokestone '06 F-150.

You cannot buy these products at a local store so you will need to order them.

What kind of results are trying to get? And what do you have in your detailing stash? I just spend 11 hours yesterday on my wifes black car with a Makita rotory correcting paint to get this before there was any wax that touched the paint.
