Well, after receiving my Poorboys products in two days I got to try them out for the first time today. All in all I used SSR2.5, SSR1, Pro Polish and Ex-P. The only problem I had was with the PP. I used the PC to apply but when it came time to remove, it wouldn't come off. I had to resort to using a terry bonnet on the PC at 6 whcih I don't like to do. After it came off it looked great but I spent a lot of extra time on it.
After searching I'm sure I used too much product. But, how in the heck can you use less? I think if I used any less my pad would be totally dry. Is it easier to use by hand? | |

Next time I'll leave it alone for a while longer. I did the whole car before buffing though trying to give it adequate time to dry. | |
