I have heard some good things on here about the poorboys range and it is available at goodprice here in the UK.



WHat puzzles me is what order the products good be used in?!?!?



I am thinking that if you were to use 'just' the poorboys range then you could use, in this order:



SSR products ( from high to low)

Professional Polish

EX or EX-P

Nattys



IS the Professional polish an alternative to polish with carnauba, or is the "with carnauba" product a one stop item?



Also - what is the difference between the EX and EX-P??



Sorry - confused.



Thanks

This is what I have heard:



You can use the SSR's before or after the PP, whichever you use last will result in a slightly different look (I can't remember...I think the SSR's were supposed to be glossier, PP was "clearer").



The PP is polish only, the PwC is kind of a cleaner wax.



The EX-P is a pure polymer, while the EX has carnauba also.



I just did a SSR2/SSR1/EX-Px2 on my car, with a PP/EX-Px2 on my wheels.
 
so, if the paint is in decent condition, then a going over with the PP followed by EX-P might be a decent idea.



or perhaps PP, followed with EX and then a topper such as P21s? (or even Nattys??)



would that be OK? is the EX-P more suitable if there is not going to be a topper?
 
The PP is very nice on fine cobwebbing, it's very solventy, tho. I'm not sure that EX needs to be topped with a carnauba since it already has carnauba....but I dunno, Scottwax seems to be the EX/EX-P expert (no pun intended). He has a preference for the two based on the color of the vehicle...search on it and you should be able to find his recommendations.
 
EX-P seems to give a more reflective finish which suits lighter colours as opposed to EX, which seems to give a clearer, wetter finish hence it seems to suit darker colours more.

Either can be topped for that little 'extra'.



The PP is very nice as Setec Astronomy says but I've found that sometimes it's easier to use PWC or SSR 1 in the damp UK climate at this time of year, as the PP takes a bit longer to cure properly and remove if not applied very thinly.



Any of your suggestions should give pretty fine results :).



Cheers.
