Is this the "ULTIMATE" shine for black bikes?

I know they are a lot of good waxes out there, and I have used most of them. I really like Mequiers products too.
My point here is for the black bikes, all the other waxes I have used looked pretty good also.
The black box wax really hides the very very fine swirls and scratches you see around light reflections in the paint. I have never used a wax that hid all that to the extent this does.
I really like this wax. If it holds up as good as it looks now I will be 100% satisfied.
The spray detailer that comes with the kit is black pigmented also. I am guessing that between waxes it will help hide any imperfections.
I was very impressed with the wax and just wanted to tell you all about my experience with it.

I bought the box a year ago and its still sitting in the garage with a collection of several other "best waxes at the moment" to pick and choose from. I have not felt like taking the time because of the multiple steps involved. Might get around to it this spring after reading your post. I mostly use Turtle Wax Ice or Pledge. I just cant bring myself to use up a couple hours of good riding time waxing it right now. I can wash and dry and wax with Ice in well under an hour. However may do the black box to see how it does on fine swirls from earlier wax experiments.

A detail job on mine takes me anywhere from 4 hours to a day and a half depending on how thorough I get.

Turtle wax black box
I bought some Turtle Wax "Black Box" wax about two months ago, and I just got around to waxing the bike last night.
It was a little messy, I wore latex gloves because of the black pigmented wax. It took a little time, it was a four step process.
This stuff is amazing, it looks like you can dip the black paint up with a spoon. It's very, very glossy and the paint looks deep and wet. It totally eliminated the minute scratches and swirls.
I don't know how long it will last, but for now I am very impressed.
If you have a black bike you owe it to yourself to try this stuff.
