Black is a beautiful color for about 15 minutes until it meets the environment.
I use Chemical Guys. I know there are better products out there, but I have been happy with their stuff. My OCD likes their consistent bottle sizes. Meguiars Professional (in the tan bottles) is also a great product I've used. I am using the TORQ buffer too. Has worked well and I like it better than my Griot.
....and yes, this is true. 15 mins and then it's dirty again. HOWEVER, when you polish, wax, and coat a black vehicle - the likelihood of waterspots forming that you cannot remove with a simple wash is very slime.
Found a great deal on OfferUp for some very low mileage Raptor wheel/tire takeoffs this afternoon. I’m leveled with bilstein 5100s set to 2.1” and there is no rubbing at full lock, but it is very close. Might remove front crash bars just in case.

Looks fantastic!!! I had a 2010 BLACK Camaro and spent MANY MANY hours with the PC7424 and Adams....I learned so much from watching the Junkman
Finished up my Kenwood double din install. No more Sync for me. Kenwood sounds so much better and louder and cleaner. Kept the Kenwood mini amp in the dash beneath the radio. I used the Maestro kit to keep my backup camera and steering wheel controls. Steering wheel controls work just fine as well as the volume **** on the stock dash panel. When using Android Auto over USB which is what I use most, the power button single press turns off the screen. I love it. Then the only thing emitting light is the buttons on the radio faceplate which I was able to color match to the rest of the dash lighting. I had to use the Kenwood microphone and clipped it to the top of my A pillar. I installed the new hub they included but only connected the 2 USB ports. Very happy with the setup overall.
Finally got it out for a bath today and had to take some pics. So in the past month-ish I pulled the crooked Flex Fuel badge off the tailgate, removed the original fender badges and installed some I painted, swapped in Special Edition headlights, and added 2020 Black Package Ford emblems. Love the new look all over. At some point I need to address the taillights and third brake light, I'll get to that eventually! Attachment 566422 Attachment 566423
