Black Diamond Cut & Shine

Black Diamond Cut & Shine
Overall Auto Express rating

4.0

Best price: £5 | Size: 500ml

As so often Black Diamond is our budget choice. As its name suggests, this is more towards the paint renovator end of the abrasive scale than a heavy-duty scratch remover. And that showed in the results, with the finish among the best, particularly after the first attempt. The shine on our tired paint was back. Progress on the scratches was a little slower, but still apparent and risk-free. For light damage it works well, and at this price you can afford to make several attempts at removing heavier marks, such as bird lime, leaves and the like.
