all kinds, but what specifically are you looking for advice about? you should know first that black in a PITA to keep clean, but it also looks the cleanest when you get it there.

but there are 1,000 ways i could go about answering your question. let us know some of your specific concerns and questions and we'll go from there.

being a black car owner, i have lotsa tips for you...
and have posted many times on this subject-

but i can tell you that my main secrets are the car cover and keeping the car clean at all times. once it starts getting dirty all you can do is wash it. if you maintain the "just washed" look, you can keep that for several weeks (i usually go about 6 weeks with the cover and plenty of detailers spray and a duster).

here is one of the threads on this subject:

Black is the most beautiful when clean.

Several coats of Zaino and a good coat of carnuba wax to release the shine.

Take a look at the side on who owns blacks (myself, wannabe, and a few others post here decently regular, but wannabe will be your Jedi master in this case )

and just search for posts (for the most part questions posted by me are applied towards my berlina).
