Yellow wax is the best there is for dark vehicles, IF you put in the prep to clean and polish the paint. It glides on and will come off beautifully with a good towel and far outlasts other waxes. Doesnt leave any swirl or hazing.

If you're not going to do all of the prep work on the paint (clay, polish) then just use a good carnuba wax or cleaner wax. My bike and truck are both black and I only take the time to do the full clay and polish twice a year, mid summer and mid winter. Other times I will just do a normal wax and use the orbital buffer.

I'd rather ride my bike than wash it so I clay it twice a season and wash it when needed. The clay bar does an amazing job and I'm impressed whenever I use it. I think this year I'll do what some other members have been saying and spray pledge on my bike after I clay it.
