SSR1 or PwC before EX ?

[Reeeko99]

Hello everyone.
Got a simple question today for the Poorboy guru`s in the house.

2002 Grand Caravan
Honda Civic SI 2004 Nighthawk Black

For the Honda I planned on using only the PwC and EX this spring when the weather breaks in Iowa and I can clean it up.
Prior to winter it got 2 coats of EX-P and 2 coats of #16.
Would doing SSR1/EX combo give me a deeper, wetter look than PwC/EX combo ?

For the Caravan
Clay, ( SSR1 or PwC ? ) and then EX.
Prior to winter it got Clayed, #9, 2 coats of AIO and 3 coats of SG. Looks very nice.
Should I use SSR1 or stick with just using PwC before EX?
It`s a all day event detailing this beast.

Both vehicles are in good shape paint wise.

My main question is can I use SSR1 and skip PwC in general or use both and in what order? SSR1 first then PwC and then a sealant ?
Doesn`t PwC strip some of the gloss of SSR1 ?

Thank you everyone for all of the valuable info you provide here at this site.

Thank you,

SSR1 doesnt leave anything behind so PwC would only add to the look. I would say going SSR1 to EX will give you more of a clear gloss and adding PwC gives more of a warm look.

You should be fine with either one before EX.

:yeah

Personally I prefer PwC with EX, but that`s me. PwC is a great product although it doesn`t get the fanfare that some other products get.

Thanks to everyone for the responses.

I think I`ll use the SSR1/EX combo on the Van and PwC/EX combo on the Honda.

Hey if I don`t like it, I can always strip it off and try something else.
Thats half the fun.
Appreciate your responses.

Have a great week.

I would go with SSR1 because its a straight polish and should give you a better slate to lay down your EX..post some pics when you can or maybe a comparison. Good luck and Aloha..Jon
