    Poorboys stuff

    Hey I just got a bunch of Poorboys stuff, and I'm really impressed with it.

    I used to use the Meguires, it's good, but this is better.
    It's easy to apply and shines better.
    I also like how you can use all they're stuff in direct sunlight.

    I got the
    Wash concentrate
    polish for light and dark colors
    Natty's wax light/dark
    trim restorer
    tire shine
    and Spray and gloss.

    Got it from autogeek.com.
    Micro's were on sale too.

    I love the Spray and Gloss - Sometimes I drink a little....
    Trim detailer also works great.
    love the wash.


    My car's all tore down, so here's my friends cobra we did last week.



    My truck, hand applied Natty's and SG after it got rained on.







    Just thought I'd post a little feedback

    I can never tell the difference. All the products that I have used seem to work the same for me.

    I've been meaning to try the Poorboys stuff. Like you I have been a Meguiars user for years. How was the pricing on autogeek.com compared to SMP?

    pricing seemed good to me. 8-15 bucks depending on what it was.

    Definately try the natty's wax and Spray&Gloss.
    been really happy with it.

    ordered the wheel sealer and some other stuff I gotta try out soon.

    I wasn't impressed with the tire shine.
    everything else is great.


    Right now there's a good sale on PB stuff here:

    Did a few other cars, also tried the EX sealer wax.
    These cars had some overspray on them, so I clayed it off and put on the poor boys with some PC love.

    check it out.

    Clay, polish and nattys on this one.







    These BMW's had a lot of overspray on them.
    The EX made a nice shine, and it's supposed to last up to 6 months.

    The silver I polished with medium, then fine, then EX.




    After that was a Black Beamer.
    Y'all know black shows everything.
    So it had alot of OS on it, and alot of swirl marks.

    I polished it 3x, could use some more, but turned out good.

    Natty's Blue and EX-P are the staples in my detailing arsenal. Not sure what I did before I joined Autopia!
