Poorboys Black hole

Fills scratches to a degree and results I've seen look good

For the scratches use this - Farecla 7163 150ml G3 Professional Scratch Remover Paste

Great product used on my scratches on my java black rrs last weekend and whilst a few deep scratches still there they almost not noticeable.

G3 is a compound, best used with a machine polisher.

Use the black hole. It has fillers in it and is much much easier worked with, and can just be done by hand. MY10 HSE 3.0 TDV6 : Santorini Black : Ebony Interior w/Anigre wood : Privacy Glass (total) : Sunroof : Sidesteps : Hybrid TV : Detachable Tow Kit : Spare Wheel Cover : 22" Dished Supersports

What the Farcela product, or the fact I've not used Black Hole?

To be fair I have more products in the garage than you could shake a VERY big stick at, but PB's Black Hole has never made it onto the shelf Smile ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

I tried Black Hole once - never again, too messy. Whistle

I'd stick with Autoglym Super Resin Polish which does a great job on black paintwork. FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy
Ex 2006 RRS SC - garbage
Ex 2016 135i M Sport - dream car
Ex 2003 RS6 Avant - piece of cr*p
Ex 2014 320d X Drive, M Sport Touring - ok I guess
Ex 2007 RRS TDV8 - bloody loved it
EX 2007 FL2 XS - not so bad

Yep - I applied it by hand and it came with a applicator pad. Not used the Black hole product so can't compare.

But I'm sure both will do a good job Thumbs Up

Poorboys black hole is a glaze not a polish or a wax. It will fill in a lot of the scratches but will not remove them. Handy until you get time to polish and then wax if and when it stops raining.
