This is by far my favourite for a black car

You'll need to make sure the prep pre wax is spot on to see maximum benefit though

For polish, Poorboys, unless you wanna get really deep into MOP's

If you have a decent MOP and are confident with it, then I'd recommend going down the Menzerna road

They're particularly good on the very hard type of paint that BMW use too, which can be tough to work with. Menzerna makes it much easier.
