Copied from Meguiar's Online. (I just did this car a few days ago and thought I'd see if I could copy and paste it here and it worked)
So here is one of my good customers that had alot of RIDS on his beautiful CTSV that I'm guessing his former detailer didn't care about.
For his monthly detail I chose to polish this with Black Wax so I can make a post for the member her on MOL to see what you can do with this wax and a DA.
So this wasn't a paint correction or even a paid polish but it was a beautiful day and I said let's do it for my fellow MOL members!
I waterless washed with Aquanil, prepped with Speedy Prep Towel and Black Wax on a yellow pad and my Flex.
This car needed M105 and 6 hrs of polishing but that's for another day when I'll get paid for it.
So the paint isn't perfect but it is beautiful!

Looks like the responsible thing to do in this neighborhood is to NOT USE WATER and pollute the ocean. (I'll protect your environment little Dolphins! If you check the links on my web page you find the Pacific Marine Mammal Rescue Center's link that I donate to.)
I LOVE MY OCEAN!
All set up and ready to work
I used alot of product on this car, well to me I did. This was my prep amount and then I use about the same amount per area I worked.
I use two different lights. The Xenon of course and then my Stanly for a whiter light
So someone said Black Wax had pigment in it. It doesn't. Here it is on the lights and what my pad looked like when I was using.
OMG! I MESSED IT ALL UP! JK, just the dry wax.
The finished product of my labor. About and two hours of actual polishing.
Even with the paint defects still there this car looks wet, deep and dark!

You can see the RIDS but this car looks great!
You can see some of the defects but it's not noticeable while looking at this awesome shine.
Nice reflection of the beautiful neighborhood
No I didn't pollute the ocean today! Your welcome Mother Earth. I'm doing my part, and you should too.
So I'm telling you, YOU can get this kind of shine without using 40 gals of water and polluting the earth. Oh and the water going into the drain is from my customer's neighbor washing his car the "old fashion way"

Nice hood refection of the Detail van that got this job done.
It's like a mirror.
So you to can get this kind of results with a DA and the new Black Wax by Meguiar's.
I did this car in a simple matter so you, the average enthusiast, can see what you can do with these awesome tools that Meguiar's provides you Car Crazy people!
