Question Turtle Wax Color Cure Wax?

Any experiences with Turtle Wax Color Cure with Chip Stick??
I've got a couple of "trouble spots" on my black truck and was considering trying it but fear using a pigmented wax on my clearcoat despite what the bottle claims.
I have read posts of other's using various black waxes- Any recomendations?

I have used the Color Cure w/chipstick on my dark royal blue paint and it seemed to work pretty good. I have heard on other posts here that some of the people with black trucks had good luck with it too. I have also used the red Color cure on my moms minivan and it didn't seem to work as well, the chipstick seemed to make the scratchs appear too dark. Better than white metal showing though.
Here is the only downside I have seen. IMO it covered the scratchs well, but didn't leave a very high gloss shine like Mequirs or Zymol does. I have heard that Zaino is the only way to go if you have a black truck.

I've used it on my Black 98 NASCAR Edition and it does a pretty good job. To be honest, I use it as a cover up and the turn around the next week and use Mequirs Gold Class for the shine. That combination seems to work real well. Looks like you're looking into a pool of the blackest oil.
