As an owner of a '01 Super Black SE 4x4, I've got to let you know that I just tried some products from Griot's Garage and they just blew away Mother's and Meguires without a doubt!! I just washed with a BOAR'S HAIR BRUSH (I was hesitant), clayed, hand polished and finished with their carnauba wax. It now shines like a big black marble on four wheels, without the swirls that the other products couldn't remove!! In addition, keep in mind that Griot's carnauba wax contains the highest wax percentage available, 30%. It's still easy on/off, and provides the best protection against the elements (or so I'm told). I just did the roof and hood in preparation for the winter and will do a complete job in the spring. I'll update at that time, but am thrilled so far. Good luck!! See griotsgarage.com. laugh laugh
