Dacp Vs. Poorboys Ssr3??????

**Maknmony** · 02-19-2005, 04:15 PM

Hello,

I have DACP and find that it`s an ok polish for removing swirl marks left behind from the Rotary and minor cleanup of a vehicle that you dont really need the rotary for. My question is, which of these 2 products is more abrasive? Dacp in my opionion doesnt seem to be abrasive at all. I have been using Presta ultimate cutting creme with the rotary and have been happy, i will be receiving my order from Premium auto care on Monday, i ordered SSR3 and wolfgang sealant. I also just received VM this week.

Thanks,

Sellncars

Interesting that you posted about this because I used some IP and I was thinking of using something a little more abrasive. I was considering DCAP but now I`m not so sure.

DACP is more along the lines of SSR2.5, the 3 is more abrasive. I can not comment on a comparision to the ultra cutting creme however I have used Strata 1000 from Presta and it was some pretty abrasive stuff, moreso than SSR3.

SSR3 is much more abrasive IMO. I would only use it with a rotary.

FWIW, I find DACP to be an extremely efficient product.

Plan on following SSR3 with a final polish.

So your saying that the SSR3 was less abrasive then the Strata? The Ultimate Cutting Creme is a Strata product. It will take out 1200 Grit sand scratch`s.

So do you think that the SSR3 should be used with the PC? Would it be best suited with the PC?

IMO, no, but I have heard of people doing it. IMO, it is a rotary only product.....

Web Docta - DACP is more aggressive then IP, similar to SSR 2.5

I`ve had good luck using SSR3 with a PC, just make sure to clean or change the pad often - they cake up pretty quick.

Here is a BMW I did with the PC and SSR3

I agree with ebpcivic........... SSR3 is better suited to a rotary buffer, as are most products in that abrasiveness range. Can you use some of them with a PC........... probably, but you will spend a lot of time "stepping down" through some less abrasive polishes to remove the hazing left behind.
