    Thanks to EVERYONE for your fantastic and very helpful suggestions. I've read all 4 parts of the 2006 NBP Acura TL blog and MAN was that amazing! I learned a lot from just that one blog, especially how to avoid re-scratching the post-restored finish as a result of incorrect washing and drying...

    Critical Details, thank you for the advice. Although the car is driven infrequently, and even then, only in dry weather on dry roads, I notice that even after the most careful hand washing with a lambs wool mit, some swirls appear.

    Hello from SW Connecticut

    Thanks LH for commiserating with my pain. This is my first (and probably last) black car. A blessing when the paint is smooth and clean but a never ending job keeping it that way. You're right about it being a nightmare! :iagree:

    Hello from SW Connecticut

    Hi everyone. I've been lurking the past few weeks in several forums and am convinced this is a great group of people who share the passion. I've got a 2008 Nighthawk Black Pearl Honda Civic Si coupe that's never been driven in rain or snow (honest!) and brings me pleasure behind the wheel or...
