I'll start off by saying that I've NEVER liked Turtle Wax products. I've had borderline terrible results with their paste waxes in the past, so much that I through out the products after the first use.
With that being said, I saw Howitzer's video reviews on Turtle Wax's Black Box and was totally sold. I went to Advance Auto Parts yesterday and picked up the kit, washed my black '05 Z4 and began applying the products later that afternoon. The end result was absolutely fantastic! The front end of my car is covered in small rock chips and TW's Black Box filled/covered everything. The finish looks like glass. I couldn't be any happier.
As like all TW products, Black Box is rather difficult to remove once dried on the vehicle. Another thing - WEAR GLOVES. This stuff is just like applying black shoe polish.
The true to test will be to see how long it actually holds up.

)Now that I have gotten pretty decent at polishing...I don't waste my time with fillers. Sure I wax my car, but if you wax your car to make it shine then your paint needs polishing. Wax should not be needed to make your car shine, if the car is properly polished, you will see no significant change in reflection/deepness after applying wax.
