Man O Man I am impressed. I have used the polish a few times but this weekend I did the following.

Claybar my hood and front fenders because they were rough to the touch I could apply wax and it still wouldnt smooth it out (Used the carwash as the lclaybar lube worked well). After that I used the SSR1 then the polish then the EX. 1 Coat of each because of time constraints. The hood and fenders are once again silky smooth (On a 5 yr old truck) and the dark blue really shines. The process didnt take long and the product is great. Cant wait to have time to do the whole truck
 
:wait Didn't you get the stuff about 6 months ago? Did it take that long to move into the new house:dunno
 
Yea I moved in in January. Only bad thing we dint get nice weather until about the end of april/may. Also homeownership really takes up alot of time. Before when I lived with my parents I would detail my truck at least every 2 wks now I am lucky to wash it once a month. Things are slowing down (painting, yardwork, etc.) so Ill have more time. I used the carwash a bunch of times but not the wax
 
I second the SSR line of products! I recently "inherited" my parents '01 I30, and the poor thing was swirl city. Such a nice color under all the mess, "Ruby Red Metallic Clearcoat".

When I first got the car, you couldnt tell it was a metalllic. The swirls took that much away from the shine of the paint.

I ended up hitting most of the car with SSR 2.5 to get rid of the major swirls, and then I went over the whole car again with SSR 1 (needless to say, it took a LONG time). I went the UPP route after using the SSR polishes and a coat of AIO (although I think next time I will try the EX).

The car is completely different now. Before it looked like a plain non-metallic maroon. Now from 10' away you can count the metal chips in the paint. Night and day difference (I wish I took before pics, after pics will be up as soon as it stops being so darn cloudy in CT).

Definitely a product line I will be sticking with. I think they should put together a "one of everything" kit on their site. I just ordered the wheel cleaner and sealant. I will be ordering Bug Squash once its available. I think Im going to need a cabinet just for Poorboys stuff :)
