Dude....teach me!! LOL! I've tried everything to get my black car to look like that. Maybe I'm not using the right stuff.

Superb job!

Black cars are not the easiest to keep clean.

Black is tough. I've done detail work before, and the dark colours are just a bitch. They show everything, and if you don't do it just right, you can make it worse.

If I remember correctly, its built on a Jaguar platform. They are very underestimated, and I would LOVE to buy one when my Impala or Grand Prix becomes undrivable. Or after a deployment... lol

I have alot of swirls in my paint how do u get those out?

_________________

to get out swirls i use a Flex 3401 and depending on how bad the swirls are i start with Adam's Severe Swirl Remover on a green pad (if they are really bad), after that i follow it up with Adam's Swirl and Haze Remover (if they are moderate) on an orange pad and finish it with Adam's Fine Machine Polish.
