I'm about to place my order for a track model, and I'm torn between the brickyard and the super black. The super black looks oh so sweet from the photos I see, but I'm concerned how long you can keep it looking nice (i.e. swirls from washing etc.) The brickyard still looks good, but doesn't proclaim "I kicjk holy a@@!" like the black does. Any input? In the end, i guess it all comes down to me, but I wuld like to make a semi informed decision.

 

just make sure you use microfiber towels and good washing products. Some tips and products can be ordered at www.properautocare.com Also, with a black car.. you gotta put a wax or sealent on it. Makes it look even richer, darker, and better. I used Blackfire on mines. The only reason i got swirl marks was from the dealer. but other than that.. its not that hard. Fingerprints, dust, dirt are easier to notice on black cars tho. Just have a quick detailer spray handy at all times in case of emergency. I say get the super black... its soooweeeet!!!

 

my regimen - wash every weekend, wax every other with zaino.

and ya know what? my cars dirty as hell.

with that said, I wouldnt change my choice for the world, I love it. and I dont think brickyard is going to be all that much better about it.

 

Black is a pain to keep clean but when it is it really looks great. My wife has a black Land Rover so I don't really want to wash that thing every weekend. Fortunately we don't get much rain out here and absolutly zero in the summer. I keep'em garaged and take approx 5-10 min in the evening to go over it with No. 34 quick detailing spray to maintian the Blackfire shine. Really easy and super shine. Other products which would also work are:

BLACKFIRE Deep Gloss Spray
Meguiar's No. 34 Final Inspection
Eagle One Wet Wipe N' Shine
3M Perfect-It Gloss Enhancer
Luster Detailer

I have also been playing with adding a small amount of Blackfire to a sprayer with No. 34. It seems to do pretty good about removing the dust, pollen, fingerprints etc. and adding a little sealer shine. Black can be really beautiful is maintian and really hideous if it's not.

Brickyard is no fun to keep clean either. Go for what u want.

 

i got the black, and its the first black i ever owned, it is a hassle to keep clean though one drive and it comes back looking dirty.
i wash this car every third day and wax it ever 2 weeks
Im actually sitting here at the comp waiting for the sun to go down to apply another wax jobby

 

Anyone that's owned a black car knows it's a labor of love. If you don't enjoy washing and detailing cars, go with PPW.

 

hey dont get me wrong.........I LOVE black but i Hate washing to.

The love just beats the hate
