Does Black Car Polish Really Hide Scratches?

- Watch this video to discover the results of our hand polishing experiment using Turtle Wax. Can it really revive faded paintwork? We put it to the test and reveal the results. Don't miss out on this informative video.
I put this sceptical Car Polish to the test on a Black BMW which was covered in scratches and swirls from its life at a Hand Car Wash. And we all know Hand Polishing a Dark Coloured Car is good but it never gets perfect results. Could this one be the Perfect Solution? Think of it like an improved version of T Cut Colour fast. (could this end in tears?)

You can apply this polish by Machine with a medium pad and Pan the Organizer made a good video demonstrating it. Personally if you have access to a machine then a compound will get you better results if carried out correctly.

No problem putting on something on top after 1h. Minimal impact on the durability is what my testing have concluded :)
Thank you for honest review! You can definitely see the limitations of this product. It’s a good product but it does remove/hide only slight imperfections, but that’s ok. I appreciate that you did not exaggerate it’s results! It’s enough for my needs because I do not have time in my life to spend hours detailing my cars. It took me 2 hours to wash and apply this product on the entire car. I really like it despite the fact that it does not remove deeper scratches.
Thank you I feel for most non detailers this will definitely have it's place 🙏
Great product, used this and the non black acrylic ceramic too for years, can't fault it. Make sure you stick some grapheme ceramic paste wax on after!
When ever I go out people always shout there goes that turtle wax car.
Thanks turtle wax.
Used it by hand and the polish with a machine and came out amazing love this stuff.
Nice glad it worked. I think people tend to forget that it is just a polish. I can't fault it because it said it would take care of swirls. It won't last long but had to give it a try
How was it whit a machine?
Whold love to thy it...
Big diffrent against hand polish?
Greetings from sweden.
Can’t argue with those results.
Thank you
Just every single video on this channel is awesome . really mate keep doing what your doing. You deserve so mutch more credit for all the effort you make putting these video's together . just awesome
Thanks Glenn. My other channel is the one I'm going all out for.
@@epicautomotivedetailing can you pls tell me the name of your other youtube channel mate ? Greetz from belgium btw
In the past I had some old Seat Ibiza that had oxidized paint, and I bought something similar to this, it was a Sonax product, and the paint was red. It improved the look of the paint, but it lasted a few days only. I think those products are good only when selling a vehicle since they won't actually remove swirl marks and scratches, It seems like they're just covering/hiding them. Maybe the one from the video will be better because of the ceramics inside.
100% it's short term fix but great product nevertheless
Thanks Dave, totally agree on your views on this, great review 👌
Thanks my friend
Hello Dave,wow now that is a difference,alot better than the other side,things have certainly moved on since the old Turtle Wax came out,I remember the old chip stick on the bottle 😂.
Got to love the old chipstick lol. I remember the old green and blue bottles too. think they did a red one
I ended up with a non-metallic BLACK 2021 Hyundai Elantra (Avante perhaps there), which was the last colour on my list .. actually, the only colour NOT on my list as I considered it a showroom colour and dopes or people with staff to clean their car buy them. This model had DARK grey wheels which I just do not "get" .. seem like winter rims to me; but apparently, they are cool; so, at the last moment I thought it would hide the grill a bit and pull those black wheels to look like they belong in my mind. I used this - the first spring; so, the car would by say a year old. I found it WAY nicer that the spray which I used in the fall; so much easier to remove I found and far less streaks. It lasted all spring, summer, fall (and still seems good), whereby water spray only car washes it beads well and, with a damp and dry cloth after, it shined up perfect. I have been very happy with it; although my paper large coffee I was drinking from, came out looking like I must work in a coal mine.
Auto finesse tripple is the best short term fix and a joy to use
I bought some yesterday to see what that's like 👌
Tripple isn't a patch on srpn
A little late to the comments here...
This product used with a Urofiber 50/50 pad can produce some pretty amazing results.
Polishing by hand is sort of a fools errand but nonetheless it is better than leaving the paint as is...
Thanks for that Dave. Me boss got a black Audi in his collection so will pick some up tomorrow and give it a go.
Its good stuff but they dont need such a big bottle. I reckon sample size would be better suited. I hardly used any
Looks like it worked Dave, for a hand polish, would a DA improve the results? Look forwards to they update
yes mate it will slightly
Another great video Dave might have to try it on my gloss black roof 👍🏼
Yeah it's not bad. It's a definite improvement but ideally compound is the best way I'd recommend
It's actually not too bad results I'd say. It might be a tiny bit better than the good old SRP could do here. I personally in the "middle" of using and trying out different kind of filler type glazes, and even though they have limits, this one certainly not too bad in this category. Can be great to see in comparison with SRP on the FIAT? :P Great content as always Dave! looking forward to the next. 🔥
Thanks mate. It's one of those products that everyone keeps asking about so thought I'd get it while I had a voucher. Mind you I still had to pay £2 so better get my money back from the video to be a freebie lol
@@epicautomotivedetailing lol 😅 you'll get more than that mate. If you will have the time, i would love to see this beside SRP, just out of curiosity 🙏
@@epicautomotivedetailing you english lol £2 tight arses.
@@Karmaisreal629 lol I can't even argue with that 😂
@@epicautomotivedetailing 🤣👍
Just completed paint correction with Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Acrylic Black Polish & Wax by Turtle per your video on my black edition 2022 Porsche. It came out fantastic! (Thanks) I live in Austin TX and dust is an issue, can the Chemical Guys Dust Monster Merino Wool Auto Duster be used without causing light marring on the finish? I'm a big fan of your videos. Respectfully Jay
Applied with a micro fibre pad and finish with a micro towel, a good product for what it is
I'm assuming this guy is a "professional" and that's why he's trying his hardest to low key the product but these colored hybrid solutions are amazing especially if you use a machine and are able to use the paste and then the spray! Wonderful results trust me
Nothing wrong with product for most people mate. Average Joe will like it
only hides most marks and swirls fella, if you have decent paint already then this will work wonders, if not you'll have to get a stage 1 2 3 compound and attack with a DA buffer and take time.
Just getting this today with the wax also £20 Amazon,also bought some fusso 99 just hope the weather keeps good so I can apply the wax tomorrow
Nice one weather seems still ok at the moment
Crap weather up north mate it rained the through the night was gutted, didn’t have time to wash and do it again so went round with a damp cloth then applied the fusso wax and wow the black paint popped on me gti,so hopefully all set for a year with the crap weather on route, going to use the black spray wax on the next wash to totally seal it
Interesting vid Dave. 👍
Applied by hand and seemingly without too much pressure, it dyed the scratches black and took the eye off as you would expect.
Can I have that car for a day please? I am sure you feel the same in terms of the potential for proper improvement - it probably won't be perfect but most of that will go, given enough clear coat of course.👍
Yeah it's a great idea but I don't think it's viable option for businesses so it's one of those products I can only imagine being used by a weekend warrior 👌
Dude I ended up buying an AVA evo P80 on the back of your video when you tested it I originally was only going to spend about 250 but my misses chipped in and ended up ordering one from Cleanstore as you recommended thanks for the review its way better thought out and built better than the yellow ones and the blue ones hint hint lol thanks again and I love your vids God bless ya 👏👏👏⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐😇🙏👌
Thanks so much. The Ava is a beast. You did the right thing I used p60 and it wasn't as good
Great video, great explanation. I got exact little scratches under light like this BMW, but my car is white. Is there really any way to got all those scratches by hand with a proper compound like it did by a poslihing machine? Can you please explain? Thank you.
Would of loved to see you apply a non coloured polish on the other side to see the difference. I played around making my own waxes years ago and i added dyes to them but to be honest, i never found it made much difference no matter how much dye i added. The layer left behind is so thin that the effects of the dye are negligible.The coloured polishes are ok if you are selling a car with stone chips as the residue does not dry white although it does go white after a few weeks when the dye washes away
Hi John yeah I should of in reality but may do it again for another segment in a video
Would have been good to polish the other half with the old colour magic.
Another great vid Dave ,All ur tips are good for me having only started my mobile valet service in Dec yes Dec i got 4 customers which surprised me lol,any recom,for a polisher for starting off with .Cheers 💯👍
Hi mate I'm buying few cheap ones for a video soon so not done enough research yet to find the very best one as they have come all long way over past years.
Brilliant as always Dave I've got a machine polisher my wife got a black Astra but I'm not confident enough to give it a go you got any tips for 1st time I use it. Many Thanks 👍🤔
Best tips don't use in direct sunlight. Make sure cool cloudy day. Keep in garage over night. Little goes a long way
This stuff actually is pretty good on soft clear like subaru.
BMW is too hard to work much.
It has abrasives and works well with a DA
Great! Can I ask you approximately how long does turtle wax ceramic and graphene wax last? Approx? 3 4 months? And how about the flex wax? Can I do 2 layers of flex wax then after 12 hour curing time to apply 2 or 3 layers of turtle paste ceramic and graphene paste and leave it to. Cure for approx 12 to 24 hours? Do you think that it will last for at lest 4 5 months?
So I've used ceramic and graphene products and the one was the graphene infused paste wax. It lasted about 7 month's . I would leave it good 12+ hours so it's tough if not in garage
@@epicautomotivedetailing does it last for. So long? The Infused turtle wax paste? Amazing! So if I want then I can top up ever 2 to 3 months with flex wax! And also after to top up paste wax for. Longer protection! But if it. Last 7 months! Insane! Amazing gloss! Thanks
nice upload dave looking forward to the fiat 500. which compound wouls you recommend snd also which machine polisher would you also recommend on a budget
On a budget id recommend a cartec refinish sample kit to see how you go. My favs were rupes blue course compound
@@epicautomotivedetailing Cheers Dave will have a look into this ☺
I've been a fan of the Auto Glym resin polish topped off with the extra gloss protection for a few years now as the results have been brilliant on my grey Mercedes. Ive recently bough a black BMW though and it's got irritating swirls and scratches I cannot shift so will give this product a bash, see what happens. On a separate note, would you recommend still using the Auto glym gloss over the top of this product? Also, have you any features of how to use a mechanical polisher as I'm aware you can make a real pigs ear of things if used incorrectly. Cheers
How did you get on?
@@DameAndThatGame Not bad to be fair, it’s a decent product but needs some considerable effort to polish off I found. The AG extra gloss didn’t have the same effect as on my Merc so maybe there is some symbiosis between AG resin polish and AG extra gloss. Still haven’t plucked up courage to try machine polishing yet though.
@davej5917 OK thanks mate, Iv been using AG, then a cheap dark black wax (like shoe polish).from ebay, topped with fusso coat. But the swirls are still really bad. I'm also looking at PoorBoys Black Hole, ppl say its the best for black cars. Cheers for the reply bud
Excellent m8, thanks
Unless I missed it, did you use this polish with a machine? Also, did you use the Wax that’s part of the kit afterwards?
No my friend just hand on this occasion. Gives me an excuse to do it in another 😉
Hi Dave, I remember the colour magic of old, came with a chip stick. are they going back down this route again?
Also you say polish, so is a wax protection needed on top of this.
Essentially it does protect but they have a spray wax for 24 hours later. To be fair the cars condition of the paint was horrific but will test on a better car next week in a one of big cleans
Thank you for the video Dave. Pretty decent results for a hand polish but as you rightly say it's not going to give the results that machine polishing with a compound will produce. Would you say it was worth the difference in price compared to your more typical all in one such as SRP?
It's very good and when I peeled the tape off few hours later it did look better in real life. At moment I don't know what durability alone will be like but the car will be about so will keep my eyes on it.
Great video, this stuff is awesome
Yeah i Liked it. Its simple and gets the job done. thank you
Yo D why dont you do a top 5 or 10 of certain products like top ten compound or polish based on their effectivity whatnot
Yeah may do that in UA-cam shorts format 👌
Do Turtle Wax do the same stuff for different colour cars?
Hi Paul Don't think they do anymore
Would this Black wax help a dark grey color ??? Thank you for sharing.
To be honest no. It's far better to compound the paint
Wonder how that would compare to Maguires compound
Interesting idea. May try that
What u think about fusso wax ?
Ive got some. Ive filmed it and waiting for right time to upload
@@epicautomotivedetailing Great! Can I ask you approximately how long does turtle wax ceramic and graphene wax last? Approx? 3 4 months? And how about the flex wax? Can I do 2 layers of flex wax then after 12 hour curing time to apply 2 or 3 layers of turtle paste ceramic and graphene paste and leave it to. Cure for approx 12 to 24 hours? Do you think that it will last for at lest 4 5 months?
How long the new formula of fusso last??
)
Have u tried it with a buffer
I do want to try to do it for my black car but which polish do you think will work best on a black car by hand ?
Might be SLIGHTLY unfair to compare it to SRP, seeing as AutoGlym say there are no abrasives in SRP at all.
Although, weirdly enough, some of the bottles (older ones I think) DID say it contained micro abrasives.
That all being said, it doesn't compare that well to even something like Auto Finesse Tripple in my opinion. Especially if you DO own a DA.
SRP does contain abrasives my friend
@@epicautomotivedetailing that's what I thought too!
Bloody Autoglym.
why do it leaving haze? i already wipe it with microfiber tower.. now i rinse with water and soap still leaving haze. help please😅
it is not working at all for my 2008 black impreza, it is like doing nothing, maybe not original product?, dont know
Hi, can I use that on dark Grey car?
Yes but it doesn't make a major difference if I'm honest
The results are the same as the Colour magic but effective for what it is.
Yeah for the average user it will be good enough
I think it’s the acrylics that need 24 hrs to harden
Yeah I'm not too sure if it's my cuppa tea as I like to get it all done and dusted in one go but it looked ok and for most people it's fine
@@epicautomotivedetailing I understand me too acrylics do provide great depth and shine tho.
EPIC brand new 2 week old black car . What would you recommend for now just the two bucket wash or after wash use this? Thanks in advance il send you the £2 haha.
2 bucket always recommend just remember you're more likely to scratch a car during the drying process
@Epic Automotive Detailing thanks bud. Its all black to weeks old had few black cars I don't know why I keep going back. Once you go black you never go back they sat. 👀
Thinking about starting up and wondered what you recommend towards advertising
Hi mate I have a business playlist full of videos about free methods of advertising via google maps and other sources
@@epicautomotivedetailing ok mate will check it out thanks. Loving the vids
so I have to paste some wax after I polish with that ?
Wax after using this for added protection
@@epicautomotivedetailing so if I don`t wax after, it will be no problem?
How about single stage paint?
Personally no it won't do much.
It is a polish so I would definitely use a compound before just fore the less swirly marks
100% agree.
Will this work on a silver car???
Interesting question. I got a bottle of it to use now so I'll see what happens. May even try it on the white van lol
@@epicautomotivedetailing I've got a silver ds3 with a plum roof would look G8 if it works😎
Autoglym super resin polish would done better job than this
Yeah I agree with you on that
👍🏿
This polish does really need to be applied by Machine to get that actual results. Take a look at my 2015 Black Mustang I used this with a Cheap Harbor Freight Polisher.
