I have been detailing in socal for about a year now and I am pretty familiar with 3M's product line, however I have noticed that not many of you use their products. I would like to learn more about poorboy, pinnacle, and all the others that you use, but I am not familiar with all of the abreviations that you use....lol....so it is somewhat difficult to understand reviews and such. Can someone please assist me! I know that this asking a lot but are there any sources to find this out faster? What dressing do you prefer and why? I currently use a brand by the name of 3D (Local) but I really am over it. I need something that has a really deep shine...I do a lot of cars for Socaleuro and car shows...

Thanks Everyone,
Chris
 
Go to the Car Care Product Discussion and Review Forum. Look at the thread titled Acronyms. This should help you.
 
ive used poorboy products and i really like them. i dont know much about cars and the products ive used are recommended by my friend who knows alot more about them.

as a matter of fact, im gonna order more stuff from premium auto care. so far ive used the poorboy spray and wipe and the pooboy natural look and both products have produce great results.

the natural look is for the interior and i mostly use it for my dashboard and steering wheel and i really like how the product gives my interior a sheen look. the spray and wipe is for the exterior and i usually apply it before i wax the outside of my car the next day. like for example i detail my car and apply a sealant on monday. on tuesday i use spray and wipe to get some dust off and then apply the carnauba wax.

for carnauba waxes check out S100 paste wax because ive heard good news about this wax. paste wax and liquid carnauba wax are the same thing except one is just in liquid form. people say though that the paste wax is more durable.
 
I don't use Poorboy's products but I'm sure someone will give you some guidance, this may help to compare them with 3M and etc
