I just polished and waxed my car with turtle's wax, can I use blacklight and v7? or do I have to buff the wax out?

you should have no problem we have waxed cars with one brand of wax "sealant" and then had a customer want the black light instead, for an upgraded "detail" and everything worked great

Yes, there are four stages of polishing. First three involve ever-finer sandpaper. The fourth involves a cream polish. I have a Honda Odyssey, with huge plastic headlights, and the process took me 45 minutes. Here is a video explaining the process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvdiiXfvkD8

Dear Customer,Thank you very much for your inquiry with us!This product is considered Light-black (25% VLT) glossy finish.You can achieve the color or darkness by applying multiple layers to your unit (or any other section of the vehicle).Please let me know if I can assist you further on this matter.Thank youJayiJDMTOY

Colleen, Buy this kit it works great. Depending on what state the finish of your car is in, I might suggest you stop by an Auto store and get a liquid polish instead of a wax (the polish finish will last longer) and a couple of good polishing cloths. It's simple to use, but make sure you use a corded drill and not a battery powered drill as the battery power don't usually have the spin speed to maximize the operation.

I've had good luck using nufinish polish followed by this Collinite 476. I have also used Colllinite #840 Pre-wax Cleaner and their 870 cleaner wax (separately) followed by the 476 but if your paint is a clear coat Collinite doesn't recommend 840 or 870 on dark colors like yours. I used it on my dark gray 83 RX-7 without any harm so I am not sure why they don't recommend.

I guess I am a newbie, seems most people just use to buff after wax or glaze is on. Also i think can use to rub out areas with rubbing compound.

Yes, stuff that's intended for black vehicles should be used on any dark vehicle IMO, due to other products leaving visible residue in scratches or pin strips sometimes(if your car has them). when up close, it does the opposite of hiding them with black or dark paint background.

I didn't buy this.After researching and talking to body shops, i ended up buying the Porter Cable.What i do is apply the wax with it, then wipe most of it off with a towel, then use it to buff. Belive me , you wont be sorry.

it will have a slight gloss, almost more like a satin look.... to properly apply to give the best "OEM" gloss appearance... wetsand the lights with 1000 grit. clean apply 2,3, or 4 coats of nightshade, depending on the darkness you want. allow 24 hours to cure wetsand with 2000 grit to get out imprefections wash apply 3 to 4 coats of clear allow 24 hours to cure wetsand with 3000 grit wash use a plastic polish and polish until you get a glass like finish... if you follow this and do not rush it, allowing time to cure, you will have a oem glossy finished product...

I wouldn't say darker. My car is Black Sapphire. Before waxing, it looks like a dark blue and after waxing with this, it looks more like the deep blue I was expecting. Basically, I believe they mean that it will deepen the finish. I highly suggest using this product.

I don't know anything about the Turtle Wax product but if it does not have any UV protectant to apply to the headlight then the headlights will develop a haze again over time. You will have to remove the haze again with this product or another one. The Sylvania product does have the UV protectant and it might be a little more labor intensive but the results are good. If you are looking for a quick and easy product to do a job most of the time the results aren't lasting.

I would polish the dull weathered areas, and then wax the whole car. If you use it on plastic headlights you may need to polish them afterwards with a lens or CD polishing compound (it is a finer grit)

This is the best wax available. Go ahead and use it on your new car to protect the finish and keep it looking new.

No.Either the new bumper was not colored matched very well or your cars paint has faded.I would use a buffing compound on a area close to your bumper first to see if this will brighten up your paint. If so do the entire car then follow up with a cleaner wax.God luck.

I have done the clay, then the rubbing compound, then the wax and it looks GREAT! My personal opinion is if I were to use polish I would use it before using the compound and wax. The best place to ask is go to Griot's Garage and ask them. Since they sell all those products they would be the experts on how to apply it. They also sell a large colored pamphlet on how to use all of the products.

I used it on my new car headlights no problem; also used a "restore headlight" kit from seen on tv or "renew" not sure of brand but you use various grades of sand paper & using gloves apply a ketone :sweet smelling liquid which clearifies the clear plastic of the light- You have to be sure its dry - no water and no oil so wash well let dry well and cover for overnight setting( BUT SURE YOU TENT UP THE COVER SO IT DOES NOT TOUCH THE HEADLIGHT I USED NEWSPAPER DO NOT USE PLASTIC!!!. I then used the 3M 39030 as a sealer because the directions call for you to apply a wax to seal after you are done. It works - gets rid of you "headlight cataracts" anyway. Last for "a lifetime" of about one year then have to repeat. Did this on my '99 Camry; 04 Camry & 08 Prius. Hope this helps.

I would say all of the above. I used it primarily to cover some scratches, it's also a black wax for dark body cars.
