That is one stunning black beauty now. AWESOME work, Scott. You brought her back to better-than-factory paint. I'd love to own that one!

Black is a bitch to work with, and nearly impossible to keep clean. But dear lord, when it's clean, and I mean mirror clean like the product you can produce, it's real hard to beat.

Thanks Bob and Boogie! And yes, it looks so damn good when fresh/clean! But, it's a full time job! LOL

Everytime you post a car you’ve done I tell myself I need to schedule a paint correction. Excellent job! Mirror finish black is beautiful!

Nice save, Scott!

A clarification I'd offer is that keeping black looking good isn't a full-time job. It's a lifestyle.

Thanks all!

Thank you redfire!!

LOL, Norton, OK, I'll buy into that!

Definitely a lifestyle, and a mind-set. You have to be willing to invest a lot of time doing the right things to ensure the near perfect black paint stays that way. And man, when it's done right the paint can be so beautiful it just about takes your breath away. When it doesn't, it can make you wince! THAT'S when you seek out detailing doctors like Scott and Merlin, or learn how to properly do the detailing and paint correction yourself.
