Dodo Juice Lime prime is very good and Purple Haze Pro is miles better than the standard Purple Haze.....
Another good combination is from Zaino, using Z2 then Z8
If cost is a factor, Autoglym SRP and then Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection
If cost is not a factor you could look at the likes of Zaino Glasur or Swissvax Shield or Best of Show which look amazing on Black.

Just to add, the main thing about Black cars is a good wash technique and with french paint being soft the wrong technique will inflict swirls and marring very easily :(

Dodo Juice Lime prime has Micro-abrasives & cleaning agents remove paint oxidisation, ingrained dirt & light swirl marks
Dodo Juice's pre-wax cleanser is with no abrasives for soft paint or pre-polished surfaces.
please choose with care..
I would go With AB Cherry Glaze and a quality wax.. like Collinite or one of our brand waxes. if you need more help just let me know.

Agree although when my clio was machine polished, the paint turned out to be quite hard. Technique is everything. 2 bucket method, snowfoam is a must for me, reduces chances of creating swirls.
As for protection wax wise. I use Dodo Juice ~ Blue Velvet for summer, and more recently Collinite 845, for winter and longer lasting protection.
All depends on your budget ~ any questions just ask :)

Zaino and Dodo Juice are a good upgrade.....
I love Dodo Juice and have done since the days of having their Orange Crush wax but I have used Zaino before and like it as well.....
