VERY NICE!

Try adding a glaze before putting on that final wax and see how much more depth you will achieve!

glazes are similar to swirl removers. some have light fillers and also some oils to replenish the paint.

my fav glaze for black cars (you will never guess whose car that is in the ad, huh??!!) :
