Amazing video again. I’ve bought a bottle of Poorboys Black Hole about a year back now and it’s sat on my self and I’ve not used it yet! This has inspired me tomorrow to get it cracked open and wash my car. That’s if it’s not raining in the UK.
I watch every video you upload and when i get done with them i’m always watching your old videos. i always get a response from you when i comment and like always i can’t express how much knowledge you’ve given me. Thank you. i’m currently doing a correction and coating on an Audi A7. Watching your video i’ve come to learn harder paints are typically easier to work on however this paint seems to of been washed with a 007 steel wool instead of a wash mitt and a bucket of sand instead of a bucket of wash solution. Nonetheless i hope to finish the first step tomorrow and get started on the second step. Thanks again Sandro. Love from the US
Thanks mate and I also appreciate all your comments and support. The steel wool washed paint brings back memories lol, wish you luck but I’m sure it’ll look amazing once you’re done!
Yeah, PBBH has been in my kit for years now. I use it once a year then wax over it and its amazing. Wont use anything else. Glad to hear it came out so well. Its cheap here in the UK. So easy to apply and take off. Most of all, the car looks great.
I was considering ordering Mitchell and King glaze/paint cleaner called Pure. Mitchell & King is a small UK based company. Their products look interesting & kind of unique.
Excellent video, I use poorboys white diamond glaze on my car , brilliant gloss and shine, ideal for light colour cars , topped with fuso 99 wax , unbeatable!
Excellent review Sandro. I'm going to have to try PB's Black Hole one of these days. Especially on the girlfriend's butter soft Nissan metallic black paint.
I'm glad I watched this video. I kinda knew Poorboys would take the gold. I know that Hybrid Solutions Black Wax ceramic acrylic has been out for about four or more years now, so I would like to see how it compares. I know it's not a glaze, but I've seen it in action and it does very well.
It was 45 yrs ago but it can still send chills down my spine to think about a black or dark blue Caprice from Canada or a Monza from K.C or a Monte Carlos from Baltimore covered with dirt, scratches even hydraulic oil rolled off the truck. Any hope in making a brand new dark color car with single stage paint actually look like a new car was H7. It had a pea green color and was very oily which is what made it work so well on dark colors but you didn't want to let it dry or it would soak in and then you were buffing it out. It washed off pretty quick too was just good enough to get the car off the lot... :/
Sandro, Really appreciate these videos. While of course we love any major project you tackle with cutting-edge products, these reviews are just as important as we get older and more experienced. They’re more entertaining than you might think. I still have a tin of FK1000P. I almost never use it, but I’d never let go of it. And that’s what wisdom and experience provides. Thanks for making those decisions easier for us. As always, take care.
@@CarCraftAutoDetailing Have you tested FK1000p? I've been using it for almost 10 years now. I'm wondering how it stacks up against the hobbyist-friendly coatings such as Meguiars Hybrid.
@Mn Mn yes I have FK1000p in a few older reviews (you’d have to go back to some of my earlier videos) but it has been a while since I tested or compared it to anything newer.
Good video I might have to add some poor boys black hole one day to the shelf, I grabbed some blacklight awhile back for a quick going over on a presale as the interior took way to long to polish the exterior as well for the budget, I was happy enough with the outcome for how easy it was to apply
Meguire's number 7 is not the same as it was 10 years ago. There is an oil that they used to get from the bark of a tree that is now completely farmed out, it's gone extinct. They no longer are able to put that same oil into their product so the mirror glaze number 7 is not the same product. I used to love meguire 7 because it was unmatched In how deep it would make your paint look. the stuff that they have today is garbage. Plus the price now is ridiculous. I believe that poorboy is the best value for the money and I agree it's the easiest to use. However, easy come easy go as they say. I do find that I have to apply it more frequently than perhaps other glazes or polishes. And I absolutely LOVE to follow it up 24 hkurs after applying it with Griot's ceramic 3 in 1 wax final spray. It smells amazing, it makes the paint look glass smooth and it also prevents debris from sticking. We drove across country over the summer and the bugs were caked on. I used rainex bug remover and that was a fail... but by chance I sprayed the griot's 3 in 1 on and the bugs came right off WITH NO EFFORT OTHER THAN SPRAYING AND QUICKLY WIPING!!!. It is also an amazing "in-between waxings" product to use. It makes the car shine like crazy even though it only takes about ten minutes to wipe down the whole car. One of my favorite go to products. Great job as usual Sandro!
Good job Sandro as always. I've just switched to a black car and I've been worried about the fillers in all-in-one polishes making the stone chips go white. I can see why black hole has such a good reputation and it may help me out. It's a company car and i do high mileage so it's not worth spending a lot of money touching in the chips. Good health to you.
Thank you for these videos they are fantastic. Have you ever thought about reviewing the Xtream solutions glazes/ acrylic primers I would absolutely love to see what your opinions are on these But just a thought Thanks again for everything you do
@@CarCraftAutoDetailing I’ve used their products, and they’re solid. They’re out of New Jersey. Their sleeper product is a cutting compound called LVR321 Knockout. Cuts through severely neglected paint like nothing I’ve used before, and somehow sets you up for a fine polish when it begins to close its cycle. Isn’t oily and dust-free like 3D One, but it easily cuts at the 1k-grit level. But yeah, Topper is a high-shine product that many swear-by. They also have a black wax similar to what Poorboys offer.
A guy I trust as much as Sandro says good things about the Lvr 403/404. I did a spke with one, and I liked it. Planning on using it as the last step prior to a coating ony personal car
I am not sure of the others but the Mequairs is designed for panels without clear coat (only single stage paint). With a clear coat it never really gets absorbed. Some like the "new car glaze": Both are non-abrasive or pure polishes. M05 dries fast and dries powdery white and was/is intended for high humidity production environments, mostly body shops, dealerships and detailers. It came out in the 1950's so the name was originally used as it implied for use on new cars in the 1950's which would have been acrylic lacquer paints. M07 is a very wet product and doesn't really dry, so it's the opposite of M05. It contains the richest concentration of polishing oils out of any paint related polish from Meguiar's.
Cars of the 1950s didn’t all use lacquer, only GM did, Ford always used enamel paint because it was more durable in the long run. GM used lacquer because it polished shinier for the showroom but had long term durability problems because the film was harder than enamel and much more prone to chipping.The chipping problem was really shown by the amount of surface rust that developed around the chrome windshield and other glass moldings on GM cars when the vibration of driving chipped the paint off under the molding and then rust would migrate out under the paint around the molding.
Great video, Sandro.👍 Poorboy's Black Hole topped off with their Natty's Blue paste wax is my favourite summer combo on my blue Impreza. So enjoyable to use and looks great. My other favourite glaze is Prima Amigo.👍
The thing with the CG Black Light is… it is a sealant and glaze. It also contains mild abrasives so cannot be applied onto a sealant because it will abrade it. So it is part of a system such as layering over it with CG Jet seal. Whereas Poorboy’s I find is a true glaze that can be applied over a sealant. I have both but shame the poorboy’s does not last all too long. All of them have their drawbacks. I tend to chop and change between black light and black hole show glaze.
Great video as always Poorboys black hole it's hard to see past it Just a great Glaze I have been using it for about 8 months now Makes the paint look fantastic Keep them coming In Sandro we TRUST
Amazing video as always. Can you please make a video on products that make the car shine the most and products that make the car most slick and slippery.
Thanks mate I think that could be a great little video to I do - I have shown that on a detail I did a while back as well: ruclips.net/video/3u5oTQt9s0I/видео.html
You saved so much time again! You are meticulous and your approach is scientific. Thank you, Sandro! For glazing Maserati black, I bought Poorboy's World Black Hole Show Glaze for Dark Vehicles, Which pad do you reocmmend for application? CARPRO Gloss Pad or Lack Country Black HDO Finishing Pad?
Damn, this sold me on poor boys to say the least. Especially being a business owner I consider price before anything😅 I would love topping Jescar Ultra Lock+ with that glaze…not sure if too much saturation will create a ghostly or milky finish though. Only one way to find out!! Thank you for these crazy in-depth reviews. I was eagerly awaiting a video on glazes and look forward to another one including our winner here.
My pleasure mate. Ideally you’d go Black Hole followed by UltraLock+, but it you just want something more temporary to top Jescar and make the paint look more amazing then you can certainly just use it as a topper.
Sandro, I researched glazes in 2014 and landed on Poorboy's World Black Hole. That was the start of my love for the brand. - BTW, you getting good use out of the Coating Caddy™ Bottle Holder
@@CarCraftAutoDetailing forgot to mention. Yes! We did. I tried all except 3M. And the m7, it's great for working on old, oxidized single stage paint. When you want to keep as much original as possible. - glad you're using it!
Thanks, and you’d typically add your wax/sealant over it to seal the finish. Surprisingly it can actually last relatively long topping certain glazes, my advice is to try and wait 12-24hrs to top them and it should go well.
Great stuff, I was curious to see Black Hole up against other glazes. I wonder whether Gyeon Primer looks as good but it's probably the better bet regardless if following up with a ceramic coating. Otherwise Poorboy's it is!
Autoglym Super Resin Polish is better than Show Car Glaze in my opinion. Meguiars M80 Speed Glaze by machine is pretty good as well. It’s been a few minutes since I used Blacklight, if it was impressive I guess I’ll still be using it. Poorboys is just a bear in my area to get hold of. Scholl Concepts W9 is also great IMO
I know a good friend who restores old cars a hobby he used Megs show car the night before and doesn’t wipe off the next day he uses rotary and wool on old school single stage followed by polish with wax and swears by it. He gave me some and I did my whole car before doing the wipe off and what a nightmare.
Awesome video bro! What would you put over that Black Hole to give it durability? I'm not really sure if anything really bonds over the top of a glaze....most glazed are full of oils. Do you have any thoughts on what will work good over them to lock in those oils and add good durability? I'm fixing to do a red single stage paint and want to put something on it (besides a ceramic coating) to keep it from oxidizing that'll last at least 6m or longer.
Thanks, and as you mentioned I don’t think long term protection when laying over a glaze is the easiest thing to accomplish - but you can still make it last longer with something like a paint sealant on top, maybe a liquid sealant like Jescar Ultra Lock+ or Meguairs Ceramic Liquid Wax could be good options.
A glaze is generally used after polishing and can also be topped with a wax or sealant - a glazed is used to enhance the look of paint prior further. A glazed shouldn’t be used prior to a ceramic coating and wouldn’t really be considered a substitute for one.
Is Poorboys Black Hole suitable for light coloured cars? Not many YT reviews on Poorboys White Diamond. I have 2 light coloured cars and would appreciate your advice as I’m unsure which glaze to to buy. Awesome review as always Sandro.
Black Hole definitely looks great on lighter coloured cars as well. In my experience a good looking wax, sealant or glaze looks great no matter the base colour paint, it’s more so that you see a greater impact the way light absorbs into darker colours vs the way it reflects on lighter colours.
If it’s been stored in a cool dark place and all combines well after a good shake it should be still fine. I certainly don’t think there’s any harm in trying it in any case.
@@CarCraftAutoDetailing hey thanks for quick answer. It's been stored in a cabinet but in a rather humid garage so I don't know I'll give it a shake and see.
Hi Sandro Many thanks for this video which gives us more insight in decision making Btw, a glaze like Poorboy is to proceed after a wax or before ? What are your recommandations ? Thanks
Polishing prior to using a glaze and or wax generally improves the performance of those products as it deep cleans the paint. Just try and do an IPA wipe after polishing to remove the oils - you can use something like Poorboy’s Surface Prep spray.
Although it was initially marketed towards dark paints I think it also looks great on lighter colours - they do also have Diamond Glaze which was marketed more towards light colour paints.
I think the issue answering that question is the more subjective appeal or look of car waxes that seems to be a more personal thing rather than necessarily objective or the way I tend to judge them. Glazes seem to have that more pronounced wet dark and glassy look, whereas many at least traditional waxes don’t so much. It could be the reason way a decade or two ago lots of car enthusiasts loved starting with a glaze and topping it with a wax to have the best of both worlds.
I think a lot of car detailing enthusiasts liked the combination of using a glaze that is or at least was shinier, wetter looking topped with a wax that tended to create a little more depth to the paints finish.
Not sure glazes still have their place in detailing. Today's wax and sealants are easy to lay down have better defect masking and offer durable protection on top.
Next test: Durability of top coat with and without application of glaze. Yes, glaze makes life easier, but does it effect long term durability of top is the question?
I wouldn’t. If anything maybe the opposite order. Coatings are intended to bond to a permanent surface like clear coat; a glaze won’t last a month, and the coating will depart along with it. At least in theory.
Because true glazes really just focus on looking amazing and not other things like being hydrophobic and durable, they do tend to look pretty amazing. Ultimately your use a glaze followed by your favourite wax or sealant to try and maintain its look.

If it’s been stored in a cool dark place and all combines well after a good shake it should be still fine. I certainly don’t think there’s any harm in trying it in any case.
@@CarCraftAutoDetailing hey thanks for quick answer. It's been stored in a cabinet but in a rather humid garage so I don't know I'll give it a shake and see.
Hi Sandro
Many thanks for this video which gives us more insight in decision making
Btw, a glaze like Poorboy is to proceed after a wax or before ? What are your recommandations ? Thanks
My pleasure mate and you’d normally use a wax after the glaze
if I put glaze between a typical compound gloss and a wax, will the wax hold up? or will it fall off early with the glaze?
Using glazes more frequently in the past I found them to hold up pretty well with wax/sealants applied over them in general.
Could u use both a polish and glaze before using wax?
Polishing prior to using a glaze and or wax generally improves the performance of those products as it deep cleans the paint. Just try and do an IPA wipe after polishing to remove the oils - you can use something like Poorboy’s Surface Prep spray.
Shine supply burn out # 1 glaze + ceramic. Yes
Is the poor boys product only for dark color cars, if so do they have a product for white?
Although it was initially marketed towards dark paints I think it also looks great on lighter colours - they do also have Diamond Glaze which was marketed more towards light colour paints.
Could PBBH be sealed/topped with a Ceramic Coating?
It can, but I’d expect the durability of the coating would be significantly decreased.

I see. It seems reasonable, thanks!
m21 has glaze filler and better protection.
50cal does a good glaze
Can I put wax or sealant to make the glaze last longer?
Yes you can
@@CarCraftAutoDetailing any recomendation on what will make the poorboys last longer?
Poorboys EXP tends to be a popular option to top BlackHole
Can u use on red bass boat
Does poorboys or chemical guys actually look better than a high quality wax or sealant?
I think the issue answering that question is the more subjective appeal or look of car waxes that seems to be a more personal thing rather than necessarily objective or the way I tend to judge them. Glazes seem to have that more pronounced wet dark and glassy look, whereas many at least traditional waxes don’t so much. It could be the reason way a decade or two ago lots of car enthusiasts loved starting with a glaze and topping it with a wax to have the best of both worlds.
Why not use a wax ? Is a glaze more shiny ?
I think a lot of car detailing enthusiasts liked the combination of using a glaze that is or at least was shinier, wetter looking topped with a wax that tended to create a little more depth to the paints finish.
How often should you apply this glaze to your vehicle
Typical every 1-3 months depending on the vehicle’s use
@@CarCraftAutoDetailing awesome, thank you!
A comparison with carpro essence extreme Gloss?

Not sure glazes still have their place in detailing. Today's wax and sealants are easy to lay down have better defect masking and offer durable protection on top.
I think old school car show guys can still benefit from them
Next test: Durability of top coat with and without application of glaze. Yes, glaze makes life easier, but does it effect long term durability of top is the question?
can i add ceramic coating on top of glazes?
I wouldn’t. If anything maybe the opposite order. Coatings are intended to bond to a permanent surface like clear coat; a glaze won’t last a month, and the coating will depart along with it. At least in theory.
thats true, im guessing one would polish the car, add waxes and finally glazes.
Will a glaze make a car look better than a wax?
Lay down the glaze, then go over it with a Poorboys wax. You will be happy
Because true glazes really just focus on looking amazing and not other things like being hydrophobic and durable, they do tend to look pretty amazing. Ultimately your use a glaze followed by your favourite wax or sealant to try and maintain its look.
Before watching video: Chemical Guys is the worst
After watching video: Chemical Guys is the worst
how have I never before heard the term car glaze?
Glazes aren’t nearly as popular as they where a decade or two ago, so unless your as old as me or older it’s ok not to be familiar with them 🙂
Poorboys costs hefty here in Italy and have to order from France ,otherwise I would have tried it :)
That’s the hard thing about discussing value on a global scale, price can really vary country to country.
