My monthly routine is this:

Snowfoam the entire car, leaving it 5 mins before rinsing

Wash using 2 BM, lambswool mitt and megs gold class shampoo

rinse again

Dry using a luxury drying towel/microfibre towel

Polish with Blackfire gloss enhancing polish

Seal it with Blackfire all finish paint protection


I wash it using the above methods weekly, but miss out the polishing/seaing and tend to go around the car when its dry with a speed detailer. Although in the middle of the month may top up the wax with the all finish paint protection again.

I clay it twice a year to strip off all the old protection and start again.

Anyone looking at this lot may think its a pain, but I enjoy it and it does seem to build a deeper glossy shine over time.

Hope that helps!!!!!

Being Black I would highly recommend using a Glaze after your polish stage
