    SSR1 and SSR2 by hand

    It seems I am one of the few who (unfortunately:-p ) still try to remove swirls by hand. Noe I realize it is difficult and ussually I achieve diminishing them to an appropriate degree.
    I have now found my favorives, Poorboy SSR1 and SSR2 !! (have the ssr3 but wary of using it by hand).

    They were very easy to apply and I saw results an quite a few areas within minutes. I applied SSR2 first in critical areas and then SSr1 over most of the car. It left a beautiful smooooth surface.

    My neighbor came over on his honda bike. He baby`s and has had problems removing some scracthes/swirls (he also does it by hand). I quickly took to it with the SSR1/2 combos to demonstrate them to him. Even to my amazement it really improved the surface in a couple of minutes :wait no kidding!!

    I had great results with SSR1 too in the past.

    Steve makes some great products that are very user friendly and not hard to use.

    I have since stepped up to a PC and they work even better.

    I have to give you some props for doing everything by hand, I bought a PC right from the beginning. I tried doing things by hand once, and gave up quickly.

    eggroll, you are too kind, but I plan on stepping up to a pc sometime in the near future. I only hope I will be able to use it properly (and not mess the car up on the first try ).
