I just polished my car today with that Formula 113, and my black is nowhere NEAR that shiny. I think it needs to be wetsanded or something.

Thanks guys The wax I use is Zymol, very pleased with it. I have tire wet on there, its just starting to wear off, time for a re coat . I don't wanna keep posting pics of my car every week and be annoying, but I was very pleased with these pics.

Redbird, I showed the one pic to my sister, and she didnt even know it was off my paint until she seen the wheel well
