I‘ve got Poorboys Black Hole in my detailing stash. It does leave a nice glossy finish but as it’s a filler glaze, it won’t remove the swirl marks; it’ll hide them for a relatively short period of time and will need to be reapplied once the filler properties have worn off.This is the stuff to use on the black piano plastics if you're doing it by hand.PoorBoys - Black Hole

As discussed earlier in this thread, machine polishing will give a longer lasting swirl free finish to those piano black B pillar trim pieces, provided a safe wash technique is used to help minimise re-swirling. Alternatively, get them wrapped in satin black vinyl to hide any swirl marks for good.
I'm planning on use a glaze or fine polish and then SiO2 coating the entire car but looking a fine polish without silicones. Any suggestions?
Use menzerna 2500 or 3800 as polish, then CarPro essence and finally, as SiO2, cquartz 3.0 or fictech one (this last one isn't the same protection as cquartz)
I've fitted these from EZM..... I tried the Carbon Fibre Gloss but that didn't look right so went with the Carbon Fibre Black

That looks great! I asked a company that does car wraps how much it would be to wrap the door pillars. They quoted £200! Was it easy to fit? Is the vinyl pre cut? Do you need to trim the vinyl round the edges with a Stanley knife?I've fitted these from EZM..... I tried the Carbon Fibre Gloss but that didn't look right so went with the Carbon Fibre Black

Thanks. No trimming required.... all pieces are pre-cut. It took about 20-30 minutes to do the lot. Use soapy water to wet the black bits. This allows decal to slide around to get position right. Then use credit card, or similar, to squeeze out water and a hair dryer to help it stick. You have to be quite precise with positioning as the pieces are virtually the same size as visible black areas. Also, be careful when washing the triangle bits as the top is a fine point and it can start peeling back. Otherwise no problems. Hope this helps
You could try Glaze...
Have a look here. This is a local firm to me. The products I have used have been great (I'm not associated with them in any way, just a user of their products)
It's not the top of the range stuff, but stuff more for the general user at home that has more interest than just washing their car with a bucket and sponge.
