Funny, I love black cars too but shy away from the work required to keep them perfect.
Ben just up and built a business that could take care of keeping it flawless for this reason. They sure made my midnight blue come alive. :thumbsup
I had two Barrett Jackson Shelby GT (black with red stripes) convertibles . They were stunning when clean. That lasted about the time it took to make the circle around the cars with the detailer spray bottle and microfiber towel, or the California duster. (Kind of like the instructions on shampoo: later, rinse, repeat).
I thought seriously about a black no stripe and doing the heritage shape with red. It would be awesome looking. But then I remembered the OCD maintenance required for black.
The dark British Racing Green on the Cobra was the same.
I'm amazed at how the Heritage blue / orange really doesn't show the splashes and rain spots. I washed and spruced it up after I got it off the truck. I wiped mine down with the detailer/towel before I put the cover on and actually got some dust off but it didn't show. But now I have to keep the wheel liners in the rear bonnet clean too.
