SSR1 or Professional Polish

[Secret Chimp]

So which is the milder polish? The bottle of Pro Polish I have seems to be very abrasive. It seems grittier (rubbing between fingers) than SSR1 and SSR2! But the label lists it as a preceeding step to using a final glaze or wax.

PP is suppose to be non-abrasive....... :dunno

PP is a chemical polish - no abrasives at all from what I understand.

SSR1 is a mild abrasive.

Actually there was one batch where there were slightly more abrasives added, we found that that batch worked a little deeper into the finish and was also a slight bit easier to use, but I prefered the original formula and switched it back

so PP DOES have some abrasives???

most bottles have an abrasive so fine it's not really considered abrasive by touch, but one batch did have some that could be felt

I must have product that came from the batch made with more abrasives. I can def feel the grit between my fingers. Oh, and I made sure to shake the bottle first!

And just to clarify, this is not the Pro Polish With Carnauba I am talking about. It's the plain old Poorboys Pro Polish. I use it as a cleaner on otherwise swirl free paint before I apply EX-P.

thx

With the SSR1 do you apply it and let it dry to a haze or do you apply and wipe? I plan on 1st using the 2.5 and buffing until the producty is gone. Is that correct?

What setting should I use on the PC for both product? How many passes are recommended? How small of an area should i work at a time? i've never used a PC and abrasive polishes before. Can't wait for the results.
