Hello,

Being the :newbie that I am and not wanting to :wall all day and night for weeks on end I need some guidence and input on my product selection. My intention is to start working on just my own personel and family vehicals until I get a larger grasp and understanding for the use of the products and proper technics etc..

I will purchasing everything through Autogeek within the next week or so.

The List:

Poorboy's Super Slick & Suds Concentrated Car Wash
Poorboy's Natty's Paste Wax
Poorboy's Spray & Wipe Waterless Wash
Poorboy’s Spray & Gloss
Poorboy's QD+ Quick Detailer

Poorboy's Medium Super Swirl Remover (SSR 2.5) 16 oz
Poorboy's Heavy Duty Compound (SR3) 16 oz.

Poorboy's EX Sealant with Carnauba

Poorboy’s Spray and Rinse Wheel Cleaner 32 oz

The Edge Dual Action 6” Kit
Spot Buffs Kit

I already have a PC7336sp and a large lot of MF assortment that was a gift so I am covered on that end for now.

:dunno Since PB doesnt carry a Clay Bar, I would like some advice as to which would be best to purchase.

Also using the Edge DA Kit, which Terry, MF bonnets can I use safely and efficently?

Is there anything else that I am missing or should be concerned with?

Thank you in advance for your responses. :dcrules
 
Not to rain on your parade or cost Auto Geek business, but it seems to me that you are buying a lot more stuff than you need. Several of the products are very similar and might not be needed.
Maybe you should visit with the folks at Auto Geek before you place the order.
:dunno

In what are you referring to? These?

Poorboy's Light Abrasive Swirl Remover (SR1) 16 oz.
Poorboy's Medium Abrasive Swirl Remover (SR2) 16 oz.
Poorboy's Medium Super Swirl Remover (SSR 2.5) 16 oz
Poorboy's Heavy Duty Compound (SR3) 16 oz.
Poorboy's Professional Polish
Poorboy's Polish with 100% Carnauba
Poorboy's EX Sealant with Carnauba
Poorboy's EX-P Pure Sealant

Or is it the whole thing? Could you be more exact please.
 
I think charles is refering to the EX and EXP , QD+ and S+G and perhaps the NL and the Trim Restorer. Those are quite similar and you probably dont need them all. I would get the EX, S+G . Poorboys does carry a claybar but only on there site. You can just get the cheapest clay bar from autogeek becuase most claybars are the same.

Thanks, I understand what you are referring to now. I was planning on just buying the lot of them and see which of the products I like and prefer to use better than the others.

As far as the clay bar, I didnt see it on PB's site either, maybe I am just missing it.

How about using the Edge DA Kit, which Terry, MF bonnets can I use safely and efficently?

Is there anything else that I am missing or should be concerned with?

Thanks again.
 
I think the claybar is in the misc section of poorboys site. But if your ordering from autogeek then get whatever they have there. Pretty much all clay bars are the same. For terry towels I just buy a 25 back from checker auto part for 10 bucks. I only use terry for tires and really dirty interior stuff. I never use terry on the paint. I wouldnt bother with MF bonnets for product removal. It is much quicker and less hassle to do it by hand. I cant comment on the edge da kit. I use LC pads. Maybe invest in a couple grit gaurds and high quality wash mitts if your buying a ton of stuff.

First let me say you've made a great choice in poorboys products. If you have a dark colored car you might want to get the new Blue products from poorboys. They are designed for dark (black/red) cars. I'm not sure I would bother with SSR3 only because I've Had great success with 2.5, also I think if the scratches are deap enough for SSR3 you might be heading into Rotary territory. I would suggest getting some good brushes, various sizes for getting into the nooks and cranys. Get some soft foam spunges to apply the dressings. Hope this helps.

On the brushes note the new meguiars versa angle brushes are a must. You can find them at autozone and they work great! OXO also has very top notch brushes. If you look in the kitchen section at target were they have sponges and brushes and buckets you will find some quality OXO brushes that are awesome for detailing and they are very affordable. I would also add poorboys bugsquash to your order. great stuff!
