Thanks!

In that case I'd rearrange/change-up your below products/processes a little bit.

So I was thinking the process:
Wash n dry
Seal
Po85rd
Black hole
Meguires 26 x2

Wash n dry
Po85rd
Panel Wipe of choice? (Or, perhaps: Detailer’s Coating Prep Polish.)
DP Poli-Coat Sealant
Meguires 26 x2

I personally wouldn't use the Black Hole if the Sealant was going to be part of the process.

Just did a Honda Ridgeline pick up. In Black Metallic Pearl. Two Step polish job. Menzerna PF2500 and then Car Pro Reflect. Came out great. Soft Honda paint, Used Flex 3401 with Lake county 5" hybrid pads, Blue (Cyan) light cutting pad with PF-2500 and yellow light polishing pad with reflect.
 
So has anyone tried the black hole or blackout or are they all hype?
 
So I just ordered Menzerna Intensive Polish PO 91 E into kit and want to make sure I have the process right. I will be working by hand not machine. I clayed the car about 2 weeks ago so it should be pretty clean.

Process:
Wash/Dry Shampoo(poorboys)
Polish Menzerna Intensive Polish PO 91 E

32 oz. Menzerna Final Polish PO 85U
Seal (DP Poli Seal)Detailer's Pro Series DP Poli-Coat Paint Sealant, polymer paint sealant, auto paint sealant, DP Policoat paint sealant, paint sealer
Meguires 26 cabana wax 2 coats

Any suggestions would be welcome

Have Fun with the hand polishing your forearms are going to end up like this

Just curious, it seems like you are spending quite a bit on products, why not pick-up a DA?

Maybe he's not comfortable using machines. Most of my friends will not even want me to use my Rupes to apply sealant. Remember, the screw-up factor is still very real with a DA -- just look at how many newbies have issues with DA haze.
 
Basically, if the car is black, you likely will have to follow whatever you use to remove the defects with (correction step) with a fine polish if you want it to look great - that is what most people are recommending SF4500 / PO85RD for - the final step. That polish wont do squat to most defects on most paints.

You can really generalize if any manufacturer will have soft or hard paint until you try to buff it with your set up. But, a Toyo shouldn't be anything too crazy to do
 
Here's a pic of my BMW paint after I went over it with SF4500 and a Griots 6" DA with black LC CCS pads

Wow your car looks great , yeah I'm holding off on doing the polish. I'm going to try and get a gg polisher on Black Friday and I thought it best to do this process in nice weather as I'm in pa. I am excited to try the polish once I have the gg polisher. I've been reading about Meg's 106 I think it was and my question is would you apply that first to clean the paint because that's been my understanding based on what I have read so far.
Thank you for the input I really do apreciate it
