Re: Best Wax for Phantom Black is...?
I currently use either Zymol Glasur or Swissvax Best of Show. Very pleased with both.
Just be aware that, like most things, much of the final result is down to the prep work you put in
cheers

Have a look at the link in this thread buddy
Whatever they used certainly helped towards making this car look spangly again!

Used Meguiars 105 cut then 205 polish and finished with Collinite 476s wax on the wife's Phantom A3 at the weekend. Was pleased with the result.

Poorboys black hole glaze topped with Collinite 476 [winter].Will post some new photos in a couple of weeks when prepped for summer.
Re: Best Wax for Phantom Black is...?
Settled on Poor Boys Black Hole with AF Illusion topping... very pleased with the results. Tried Poor Boys Natty Blue Paste too and that worked well but AF Illusion was just that bit 'wetter'. Dont have the kit to do a proper polish yet but plan on investing in a DAS PRO sometime soon.
Thanks for the replies,

Re: Best Wax for Phantom Black is...?
The poorboys black hole glaze has fillers in it which mask light imperfections but for a permanent solution i use a touch up paint kit bought from the dealers.Brooner wrote:any cheats for hiding light stone chips as my wife car is phantom black has alot of small chips reveling the white undercoat i know the real soution is a respray but i would like to know if there is a product that could mask the chips
Re: Best Wax for Phantom Black is...?
I have used the Black hole glaze quite good product but it's more like road rash chips the glaze does mask tthe swirls and small scratches though
the touch up pen is out really as ther are lots of chips (really needs a re spray) but was hoping to put this off for a while

Re: Best Wax for Phantom Black is...?
Cheat is one if the kids black crayons lasts a couple of washes and masks till you can touch them up.
To touch them up use a pin for cleaning a power washer nozzle, put a drop on the needle then place the needle in the chip, let it run down an make a small blob in the chip.
Leave overnight to dry and it should have settled flush, if not a bit of cut an polish can fix the dimple flush.
