what is the best car wax for a black car?

I would try a search, I'm sure there is plenty of info about this - 'specially for black cars.

P.S. Before I purchased a PC and removed my swirls, Zymol was the best wax at filling in the swirls so I would suggest Zymol.

You have to polish the paint before you get the best results from ANY wax. A true detailer will tell you 90% of the end result comes from the prep,before you apply the final lsp.
But a very good not to expensive lsp for black would be Souverign & Blackfire midnight sun.Both are nubas.

there is a special "black wax" made especially for black cars, and only on black cars. i forget the name of it, but the wax is literally black

some people like to layer a carnuba wax over a poly sealant to give darker colors a rich glow.

If you go this route I suggest the Blackfire "wet ice over fire" kit. But again you need to prep the paint first.

I always use Adam's Revive re-wax polish, followed up with Adam's Buttery Car Wax. Love the wet-look that results. No residue to worry about. And simple to use...I do mine by hand...not machine.

i think its turtle wax that makes a kit for black cars, the wax its self is black like others were stating and it really makes a black car stand out

for black i say go with blackfire wet diamond or zaino z5pro.

There is no best. It's just personal preference.

Prep the surface properly, maintain a good process, and anything is going to look nice.

I prefer Zaino Z5 Pro for a sealant and Pinnacle Souveran for a carnauba wax.

Route 66 Exotic Coatings worked great on my black Camaro. check them out at www.rt66wax.com and if you see their other site you'll see the cars they use it on at www.rt66motorsports.com

Once I bought a PC and got my swirls out for good I just used some NXT on it. Car looks good both my cars are black btw.

Go to your local autoparts store and pick up a box of this stuff called "black box" It comes with 4 bottles of wax in 4 different steps. Get a orbital low speed buffer also if you dont already have one. The results are AMAZING.

Turtle Wax "Black Box". $20 at your local parts store. 2-step wax with pre-wax cleaner, 2 bottles of black spray detailer and black carnuba wax. I bought it to see the result on the nose of my Z28. Turned it from faded black to rich and deep. I applied the pre cleaner with an orbital and went through 4 microfibers to wipe it all off. Turned the cloths black. I used Zymol as the final wax/sealer

Another vote for Zaino.

Polish is the thing hardest to chose for black cars, we detail with "high tech" wax by meguiars, but if you want a good shine, polish with any swirl free polish, if not and your not an experienced detailer... your gunna get pissed at those swirl marks! Sorry I went from wax to polish but if you want it lookin best try it out!

i want to try zaino after i finish up my tropicare carbuna wax for dark colors i think that's what its called it works nice and a bottle lasts about 10 waxes for me and it bead water for moths.

prep and care is 90% like was mentioned. I prefere zaino as a sealent but polishing it once or twice a year is what makes it look so nice. Once you get a few layers of z-5 you can start using Z-2 or a Carnuba wax. I have 95,000 miles on the car and only use Zaino twice a year but Z-2, Z-8or Carnuba every once in awhile for the shine. You can do this because polymer sealents don't wear or wash away like Carnuba.
