Swirl Removers

[dlmrun2002]

Just had my 1st experience with Poorboy products and was happy with the results. Used the Polish/Sealant AIO on my 74 BMW and the paint was jumping at a Vintage car show. I was curious to which Swirl remover to use since you have so many and they are all described the same. Are they more aggeresive as the number goes up. Thanks.

Doug,
Can you post a few pictures of your paint so we can see the severity of the swirling? that would help a lot with the process


Thanks!

•••••••I am just looking for a definition of the swirl product numbers. Is 2 more aggressive then 2.5? The rest I can manage by trying different Poorboy products which I look forward too since they are in my back yard almost. •••••

Doug,
With SSR's 1 is the least aggressive and they step up as the numbers go up 3 is the most aggressive of the line.

Thanks Gus Gus.. That is the answer I was looking for. I will pick up a high number and a low number and take it from there. Thanks Heck on the pad info per swirl remover.

Might want to think about ProPolish ( propolish 2 depending on how bad what are you going after is ) if you have access to a few aggressiveness levels of pad.

ProPolish aggressiveness is increased by changing the pad out ( i.e. black to white to green to orange ), and it does not have a break down like the SSR line ( it is a chemical polish not DAT ). I don't pick up my SSR line anymore, I always use with PP in the PB line.

Nice part is it works well on chrome, plastic, etc. I even use it to clean my faucets in the bathroom.

Just a thought on the topic.

I suggest not getting higher than SSR 2.5 unless you have a fair amount of polishing experience. SSR 3 can cut through paint pretty quickly. It also does not break down to a "wax ready" finish. Multiple steps/follow up polishes are required if you use SSR 3.
