I then cleansed the paint using Zymol paint cleanser and finally applied a coat of Zymol Concourse Wax.

My girlfriend was well chuffed when she got home

How many buckets of sweat was that?

Seriously though looks really good, panther black looks great when its clean and in certain lights, and i think you'd agree those pictures dont do the finish justice? i know mine looks shiney as a mirror even after a quick auto glym shampoo so a detail would be another level

Have used Meg's for years but since I "discovered" Blackfire I'm pretty much addicted

But the results you show are just
Think I'm gonna write those names down on my "to buy/to try"-list
