    "A musclecar, by definition, is a powerful and sporty vehicle that must be able to spin its tires at will. The Firebird Trans Am is capable of laying down twin black streaks of rubber several hundred feet long. We wanted to be sure it could, so we did it a half dozen times in the name of automotive science." - Motor Trend

    If the black roof is normal basecoat/clearcoat paint, then polishing and waxing should remove any haze and restore gloss and shine.

    Try applying either a little ScratchX or Deep Crystal Paint Cleaner, after applying and working the product into the finish, remove with a clean soft microfiber polishing cloth and inspect.

    ScratchX is more powerful at cleaning and removing defects than DC1, so choose your product accordingly. After cleaning with the paint cleaner, next apply a polish and then two coats of wax.
