    Well this is my first posting and I hope it`s worth a look.



    Process:

    Bugs & Spots: Simple Green 50:50

    Wheels: Meguiars Hot Rims

    Tires & Wheel Wells: Simple Green 50:50

    Wash : Meguiars Gold Class Wash



    Clay: Meguiars Medium

    Poor Boys SSR 2 ( Hood got 3 passes the rest of the car got 2.)

    Poor Boys Pro Polish

    Poor Boys EX-P

    Poor Boys Nattys Blue



    Note: The backing plate on my PC failed when I was on my final coat of SSR so everything else was done by hand.



    I`m sorry about the pre shots most didn`t work out as I took them so early in the morning the low light made the car look ok.



    Before







    After





















    Thanks for looking.

    I ordered that very plate just a few hours ago, along with a 3.5" and a set of 4" pads.

    I`m still learning do you mean you were surprised by the results since SSR2 is still quite aggressive? This was the first time i wished I had some SSR1. Would you suggest a alternate product or path?



    THanks
