Best Wax/Technique for Dark Colors

[YarisOwnersDad]

Hi, Peeps. Just bought a new 2009 Flint Mica Yaris sedan yesterday, and I am anxious to get a good coat of wax on it to protect from the effects of bug guts on the paint finish and to make it easier to remove said bug guts when washing the car.

Are there waxes made especially for dark colors? Are there special techniques that should be used in applying the wax. I know they used to say that for black paint you should not swirl the wax as you apply it, but should go straight back and forth with the applicator. Flint Mica is almost black.

I did use the search feature, but I didn't find what I was looking for. I might have missed it, though, so please forgive me if this subject has been addressed previously.

Thanks.

Tom
