I have been using Zaino for many years on the Camaro and now the Yukon. No swirls even under fluorescent lights.

I also use a California Duster.

No car washes.

I'm leaning towards Zaino but it seems like to do it right with the polish product you are looking at 2 days of work...dang black cars!

Yep, the first time you do it will take a long time.

But after that, it is easy. I dust it everyday and use detail spray every other day. And have not washed it it weeks.

Make sure you buy 100% cotton towels. The good stuff.

I have used products that I found at a website called adamspolishes.com. They are a bit more expensive, but they really help with swirls. I haven't used there stuff in a couple of years, but now that I have a black rig I think I need to buy some again. They also have microfiber towels that dry your car great and don't leave any lint behind. Just and FYI and giving you another option.

Use a long mitt. It works better than sponges, it cleans well especially the dirt coming from its engine block. Also, for me, waxing is a must. Newer technologies have given us products that will give your car a "just waxed" look in between waxing.
