Default Black with scatches? Eagle1 Nanowax!

Black is great.... but after polish, claybay and all kinds of wax still the scratches!
Tried Eagle1 Nanowax and had a great result (after 2 days). Any other experience?

Frank, do you know you can edit your own posts? This way you don't have to add another post and you can fix your error (s) before any of us figure it out. Oh yeah...I use Zaino!

The scratch will look better if you use some compound to remove the scratch. Try some Meguiars Scratch-X on the area then use your wax. Personally I use a Porter Cable buffer with either Professional Meguiars #83 or use Menzerma Intensive polish for scratches. For the final coat I like Menerma FMJ. I find that it has more deepth then the more popular synthetics like Ziano or Klasse.

Sometimes these scratch filling compounds evaporate after a few days. (Don't know about Nanowax, though).

Let us know how it looks after a month!

I tried Eagle1 Nanowax. It works well and looks good FOR ABOUT A WEEK and then you have to do it all over again. The Meguiars NXT is better. Zaino is still the best (I only tried Nanowax and NXT because I ran out of Zaino and I couldn't wait a week before my order got delivered.)
