If your finish is rough, try a clay bar after washing it. The clay bar will smooth out the finish and remove contaminants and oxidation. Then, if you want to use Meguiars products, go with Meguiars Mirror Glaze products. They come in tan bottles and are numbered. Try the #7 Show car glaze and then follow it up with the #26 hi-tech yellow wax. These products are better than Meguiars other stuff. I have used both, and they do an excellent job.

I'll second that! Let me tell you the Mirror glaze stuff does wonders for my black car.

Just waxed mine this weekend

I used the Gold Class Wax because I had a partial bottle left over. Does a nice job on my Black Emerald color, but not what I'd call spectacular. Going to go with the Mirror Glaze pro line the next time. People say Zaino is really good, but it's quite a process.
Spent 2 days on the paint of my car getting ready for Maxus. Washed it, used #34 Final Inspection, Compounded some scratches, clearcoat body scrub, cleaner, cleaner wax, polish and finally Gold Class wax. My arm is going to fall off!
