Alright guys,
got my car painted a really deep black about 3 months ago. The curing time is up and i need to take care of it now...so, what is the easiest and best way to care for a black paintjob.

What wax is recomended and why?

I need two things- one to remove the billions of swirls

two- something to protect it.

I have a bottle of meguirs SPEED GLAZE 80. Is that a good product to use before waxing to remove swirls?

Do you guys recomend synthetic stuff like FOUR STARS SYNTHETIC stuff, or the old school carnuba?
whats better, whats easier, what lasts longer, and why would you chose it?!

thanks guys

Zaino has quite a cult following, I bought some but I haven't used the full kit because it always rains here and its a long process.

Also make sure you use your friend the claybar before waxing.

use a nonabrasive wax and a microfiber towel and applicator pad. never use a power buffer or tery towels, definatly claybar it, and apply at least 2 coats of wax.
