I just bought an 07 ram and already remoed swirls w/ poorboys and my PC. I currently have it topped w/ ex-p and nattys blue which looks good but im looking for better. it just doesnt look wet or deep enough for me.
my question is which products will work best on a black metallic paint. i know souveran is the king for black but does it make the metallic flakes pop? how about ss2 or max wax. I don't mind spending the money on souveran if it is going to make my truck look awesome. i plan on waxing about once a month w/ liquid souveran spray in between or something else if it wont work on metallics. thanks
 
Souveran Paste does look great on black but I think Signiture Series would also look great on metallic black.
 
I agree with Gary, I've used Souveran on a few vehicles with flakes and the owners have complimented me on the flakes poping. Signiture Series II is all about the flakes, good stuff...I haven't tried it on a dark vehicle though. I have only used SSII on light vehicles (white and silver).

Um....so....where are the pictures of your new ride? :D

i have to get some better pics, just waiting on my foam cannon and water softening filter to arrive to really give it a good cleaning.
 
Natty's Blue and Souv both rock on black, but both on some of our vehicles muted flakes. Your better off using Sig Series 2 for a wet look and flake pop for example.
 
Hey Michael, nice job on the Ram! I know they can be quite the beast to detail.

I also polished my truck with SSR2.5 and SSR1 about a year ago and since have used anything from Zaino to Poorboys. I finally settled on just a nice layer of wax on it, Pete's '53. Love the way it looks.

I had the same with Natty's Blue. It's a great wax, but it didn't give me what I was looking for on my paint. I think I might save it for silvers, since it did a great job on an XC90 I did not too long ago.
 
after reading through a bunch of threads here, i think im going to give DP max wax a try. after reading and seeing the reviews this stuff gets, i think it is going to give me what im looking for, ill keep you posted.
 
MaxWax is the best on metallics, SSII is also really good. DP is my fav. on my metallic black.
 
Truck looks good, thanks for the pictuers.
 
You cannot go wrong with MaxWas, read a lot of good stuff about it!
