the biggest key is...to wash the car in the shade and dry the car in the shade for a steak free black finish.

your car is streaking because it needs waxed...as for waxing a black car...use a meguair's paste wax...#26. wax a panel at a time & remove asap with a "microfiber" towel...use just a "thin" coat of wax. keeping your car waxed monthly will help for a great finish...even when drying. between waxings use "eagle 1...wet" for a luster and touch up or after washing...works great on black cars. also..."no" leather chamois when drying...they will strip your wax. i recommend the "absorber"...it's a synthetic chamois.
