Seriously though, in order to keep the visible swirls and scratches to a minimum, I need to put a fresh coat of wax on my black paint every 2-3 weeks! If I don't, you can tell the car is 8 years old every time the sun hits it a certain way. But with fresh wax on it, the paint looks almost as good as new.
Black looks awesome when it's perfect, but it's just so much work and frankly I get kinda tired of needing to dust the car off after every trip. I really wish I could've found one in a lighter color that doesn't show every speck of dust and every hairline scratch.
