I received a called yesterday aroung 2 from a friend of mine. He had just got in from college and wanted his EVO detailed. I last saw this car about 6 months ago. I had polished out and applied a coat of NXT on her. He keeps it parked in a parking garage and keeps it clean the right way. I also gave him a bottle of Meg`s Last Touch to keep it fresh. I was amazed that NXT had held up so good. I do contribute alot to the Last Touch but not all. I just don`t get how others only see 3 weeks durability.



There was a huge mass of scratches on the roof over the passenger rear door. Looked like someone had layed and dragged a heavy backpack over the finish. About 5 of the scratches were deep and could be felt with my nails. I figured I`d try out DP`s Super Swirl Remover and my PC just to see what happened.





You`ll see why I was very impressed.....



Washed rinseless with DP`s 4-in-1 Wash

(Used plush MF towel and dried with a Cobra Guzzler)

This process and chemical is really impressing me. It`s really cutting down on my wash/dry times and alows me to do the door jams at the same time as washing. I also washed the engine and cleaned the wheels with the rinseless wash. This stuff really cleans.



Clayed with Meg`s Clay and 4-in-1 as a clay lube



DP`s Super Swirl Remover

(EDGE2K Yellow Heavy Cutting Pad at #5 PC Setting)

You`ll see in the following pics why I now adore this stuff! Only used it on the roof, hood, and trunklid.



Poorboy`s Polish with Sealant

(EDGE2K Green Med. Cutting Pad at a #5 PC setting)

I had a sample of this sent to me this week. I wanted to see how it compared to Poli-Seal. It removed minor swirls better and cleaned better. The surface was also slicker and softer than Poli-Seal. Absolutely no dusting and almost vanished as I worked it into the finish. I have a feeling that this was what I recieved last month as a "mystery" all-in-one.



DP`s Max Wax

(Applied with a foam applicator. Removed with a green Cobra MF towel.)

I wanted to give my friend an awesome finish before he went back. I wanted the flakes to pop and simply just look wet. I`m hoping for some sunny seconds before he leaves to get some sun shots for us all.



Other Products Used...

Man you are so right. I love everyday now. I used to dread work until I started detailing. I feel more blessed than lucky.



Thanks man.

I love PwS!! It is very pad dependant and doesn`t contain fillers. Used with a rotary and a polishing or cutting pad and there will be no dust, it won`t dry up and will not only remove swirls and clean the paint, it`ll leave protection behind! Your pics look real good.

I`m wondering how it really removes swirls with no abrasives present in the formula.....



Any comments?

It`s the pad that is doing all of the work. I used a polishing pad with the PC on my Jeep and it didn`t do anything to the swirls but with a cutting pad and the rotary they were gone. If there were fillers in it the swirls would have gone away with the polishing pad and PC.



Poorboy`s Professional Polish is the same way without the the protection. With a wool pad and a rotary and PP, it`ll remove sanding marks. Very versatile.

Very informative. Thanks bro. I really like this product. The finish is do freaking soft and smooth.



How long have you had your sample? I`m trying to find out the durability of it alone.



I read nothing about curing. I`m guess it`s ready to go.

Excellent work Justin. How did you like Max wax?

Figured you knew since I use it as my main LSP.



I love it. Wax on and wax off makes it so easy to use. Goes on thin. Will not stain trim. Give amazing depth to any color. Flake pop is good too. I have over half a tub left and have used it well over 50+ times. I`m getting 2 month out of an application with me maintaining the vehicle.
