Chemical Guys GAP 619 16 Black Light Hybrid Radiant Finish, Glaze & Sealant, (Safe for Cars, Trucks, SUVs, & More) for Black and Dark Colored Cars, 16 fl oz

This stuff is great! I've been using Nu-Finish (the stuff in the orange container) for years and have not been able to find anything that comes close to it's durability until now. The only complaint I have about Nu-Finish is the excessive amount of powder (aka dust) that it leaves behind. That is not really a problem on my silver car, but is a real pain in the @** with my black truck.I bought a low mileage 2002 Chevy Avalanche a few years ago and, as expected, sitting outside in the harsh central Florida sun quickly caused the factory clear coat on the roof and hood to de-laminate and start to look really bad. I decided to sand them down and have them re-painted a couple of years ago and have been looking for something that would protect the new paint without me having to wax it 2-3 times a month. I think I have finally found it!About 2 weeks after getting the new paint job I applied a good commercial grade sealer to it (Cobalt Ceramic Clear Coat). Expensive stuff in a small bottle, but it did a good job and I was amazed when that little bottle contained enough liquid to cover the new paint 2 times and still had some left.After trying numerous polishes and sealers I came across Poorboy's World EX-P. The main reason I tried it is because it can be applied in moderate sunlight and was semi-pleased to find that it held up for 4-6 weeks before a new coat was needed. Much better than any of the others that I'd tried. Then, a few months ago I saw a short video featuring Chemical Guy's Black Light and decided to give it a try. I liked the way it went on and how easy it was to wipe off leaving little residue behind and was sold on it after seeing that after 6 weeks it was still holding up to the harsh elements.The only thing left to tackle at that point were the small nicks and chips along the sides of the truck that looked like little white specks after applying any type of polish. None of the "black" products that I had tried really worked to hide the specks until I tried Turtle Wax Color Magic Jet Black Polish. That stuff really works, but like any polish/wax has a short life span. A few good rains and it's pretty much gone. Also, it's really black, so be sure to wear gloves when applying if you don't want black hands when you are done. Don't even bother with the Turtle Wax Jet Black Spray Wax, it's worthless as a polish but does work OK as a waterless car wash or quick detailer.I was curious to see if the Chemical Guy's Black Light would seal on top of the Turtle Wax Jet Black Polish without removing it to expose the white specks again so I tried it and was pleased to find that it worked great. The Turtle Wax hid the white specks (chips) and the Black Light locked it in! That was about 2 months ago and, as you can see in the pictures, my trucks still looks like it was just polished!

Easy on and easy off! Car looks great. Good quality.

If you are looking for a wax to really make your black or dark colored car POP, look no further. I used this on my well-worn 97 Town Car, and man did it make the old girl shine. It went on and wiped off smooth with no hassle and I'm sure I could have got better results up top if I used a corded polisher, but I have clear coat peel so it will not take care of everything obviously. But what paint is there is really brought out by this wax. I do not know how long it will last but I will be updating this review when I do.

Okay... Let me say this first and foremost, this is a decent product. Of Course Chemical Guys makes some extremely over -the-top claims. However, no product can do all the things that Chemical Guys claim their products can do. Regarding this product, Black Light DOES NOT remove scratches and swirl marks... I know Chemical Guys tell you it do, but it DOSE NOT, however it did blend and reduce the appearance of minor to moderate scratches and swirl marks... The product reduces them very well. I was pleasantly surprised by this so that was good... Now the shine.... At first I wasn't overly impressed by the shine it left, but then I went back about 2 hours later and did another pass with my microfiber towel and took at step back and was like hmmm, not bad.... The second day there was some dust from over night on my truck (Black 2009 Chevy Avalanche), I wiped the dust off and I was I couldn't believe it looked better the second day. Now you can't always take another persons word on the quality of the shine/gloss look because we all have our own perspective on what looks good. Now it wasn't hard to apply... I used an applicator....Put on and light to moderate coating.... I let it sit for about 45 minutes...(I got distracted with other things) the directions say 15-20 minutes... It was not hard work getting it off, but it took slight work, maybe because I left on for double the time.... Overall, this product is decent, I have only used it once on 04/05/18 and today is 04/06/18. We are expecting rain and snow tonight, lets see how it holds up after that... But over-all I will give it another shot when the weather breaks, but this time, I will add the Chemical Guys'16 Hybrid V7 Optical Select High Gloss Spray Sealant after and see what kind of shine/gloss it will leave.... I never read the 5 Star Reviews because its mostly people who work for the company or paid by the company to write... 2 star, 3 star and 4 star reviews; you can get a more of an honest picture of the product... I hope this feedback help.... I do like it after one use, and I will use it again after the weather breaks, then I will write another review to give an update on how it held up after snow and rain...next time, ill add a pic...

Great product, fantastic wax for black finish, easy application and very easy removal. Buffs off with minimum effort. 5 stars for sure.

Unbelievable shine and very easy to apply, will worth the cost of the product for such a great return.

I got this pricey $30.00 wax solution from chemical guys for my car. You get what you pay , absolutely stunning results, it is a very deep shine and super smooth it also hold longer then any other product I used . I highly recommend this product

Made my 30 yr old black truck look a good as could. Satisfied over all.
