Chemical Guys: BLACKLIGHT

Hey guys! I decided to wake up super early this morning, and since were going to have a nice few days of sunshine here in Texas, I figured I would wash and detail the car. I have a black car and man, is it hard to keep clean lol. But besides that I was looking for a product to put on after the wash to help shine it up before sealing it. I've tried a few different one and nothing I've used has worked like black light! It's ment for black cars but can be used on darker shaded cars also! I know it's hard to tell by the pictures but this stuff gives it a real slick look! Try it out if you want a super wet shine!

No.

The Blackilght shown in this thread is a glaze. It fills minor imperfections in the paint and adds gloss to the surface. It also has a light sealant mixed in with it to provide paint protection. It's not very durable though, usually lasts a month on an non-garaged car, a couple months on a garaged vehicle.

It's a good option for people who don't want to polish their paint with a machine. It's basically cosmetic make-up for your paint.

CG sells a kit with the Blackilght Glaze/V7 detail spray which work well together.

The soap contains gloss enhancers, but doesn't fill defects or provide any type of paint protection.

It a glaze, as said above, good for 30-45 days, glaze is best used for shows, they have no real use on the street.

So i am assuming, blacklight will work on top of a ceramic coating?
