Hi all.
What is the best polish to do black panels with
It's not for the 75 it's for the busa.

Thanks Alan

My metallic black paintwork was dull so bought this to remove the built up dirt etc. Sprayed the panel with water and then poured some on a small foam pad attatched to an electric drill. Buffed it in parallel lines and not leaning on the drill and it did a superb job very easy.
Then used a normal polish just to seal the paint work using a cloth. Did one panel at a time and the car looks all pearly again. And everyone who knows I dont do polishing etc just Albanian car washes lol!

If polishing by hand, then AG SRP is just fine. It also has contaminates in the polish that temporarily mask the swirls but it is only temporary, but a decent hand polish.

Don't forget to seal over the polish with a good sealant or wax of your choice, now there is a true minefield

Thanks for all the suggestions lads
Well appreciated and they will be tried.

It's not for the car it's for my bike. It's already shiny but I want it very shiny if that makes sense.
