There is a thread about the best polish. I have been using Wet Paint and really love it. Check out:

I use it on my black CT and it gives a mirror finish. I’ve put it on all my cars and it seems to hold up much better than any brand of wax.

http://www.zainostore.com/ For me this is the best polish on the market

http://www.griotsgarage.com/ Good Stuff too

As you can tell there are a lot of good polishes fro Black cars. The key is how you apply and remove the polish so you avoid swril marks. There is a lot of good information on both sites.

Mine is black also so I'll givethis a shot.
Thanks

Regardless of the wax brand, you better consider doing a clay bar on the entire car before you put on any wax. I've used Mother 's Clay Bar and loved it on all my cars. This will remove tiny impurities and leave a very smooth surface to wax.

I use liquid glass. Or zymol

I also like the Clay Magic blue bar. I have been maintaining a black Ridgeline for a few years now and the prep is the most important step. A good quality random orbital polisher will be a great investment. I have to polish mine every time before I wax it to pull out swirls no matter how careful I am in washing it. As far as wax goes, a good quality synthetic is Rejex. Not too pricey and easy to use.

This kit is considered to be one of the most trusted and proven on the market.

This product has been my favorite wax so far.

So easy to apply and remove, and last for about 3-4 months. They put it on sale from time to time.

Polish = 3M Ultrafine

Finish = I love the expression on folks faces when my S2000 is at a car show and they ask what wax I used and then I tell them a $4 bottle of NuFinish. Some of the others showing cars come by and ask "Do you really use NuFinish?".

It works.
