I feel your pain brother. I bet you put a ton of time in effort to get that thing nice and shiny, only to have it ruined in a matter of minutes by the pesky waters from the sky. Damn you pesky rain!!

Strange.... that's the same reason why I won't own another black car.

Same crap happened to me. I went out expecting the sealant to help with beading off the water but it just left circle marks instead.

I owned a black car for a few years and will never make that mistake again.

I'm right there with you. Hyper blue doesn't hide much either.

Looks like mine did by the time I got it home after my 4 hour drive from the dealer.

I've been using this post-wash stuff from Lucas. Lasts a couple months or so, and a garden hose with reasonable pressure generally is good enough to get most, if not all the rain spray off mine with a hosing, Hyper-blue.

All cars get dirty if you take them out on the road- dry or wet roads. Drive, enjoy, WASH and WAX!!

Silver and gray metallic are the best at hiding dirt of the cars I have owned.
