Review: DP's Super Swirl Remover/ PB's PWS

[justin30513]

I received a called yesterday aroung 2 from a friend of mine. He had just got in from college and wanted his EVO detailed. I last saw this car about 6 months ago. I had polished out and applied a coat of NXT on her. He keeps it parked in a parking garage and keeps it clean the right way. I also gave him a bottle of Meg's Last Touch to keep it fresh. I was amazed that NXT had held up so good. I do contribute alot to the Last Touch but not all. I just don't get how others only see 3 weeks durability.

There was a huge mass of scratches on the roof over the passenger rear door. Looked like someone had layed and dragged a heavy backpack over the finish. About 5 of the scratches were deep and could be felt with my nails. I figured I'd try out DP's Super Swirl Remover and my PC just to see what happened.


You'll see why I was very impressed.....

Washed rinseless with DP's 4-in-1 Wash
(Used plush MF towel and dried with a Cobra Guzzler)
This process and chemical is really impressing me. It's really cutting down on my wash/dry times and alows me to do the door jams at the same time as washing. I also washed the engine and cleaned the wheels with the rinseless wash. This stuff really cleans.

Clayed with Meg's Clay and 4-in-1 as a clay lube

DP's Super Swirl Remover
(EDGE2K Yellow Heavy Cutting Pad at #5 PC Setting)
You'll see in the following pics why I now adore this stuff! Only used it on the roof, hood, and trunklid.

Poorboy's Polish with Sealant
(EDGE2K Green Med. Cutting Pad at a #5 PC setting)
I had a sample of this sent to me this week. I wanted to see how it compared to Poli-Seal. It removed minor swirls better and cleaned better. The surface was also slicker and softer than Poli-Seal. Absolutely no dusting and almost vanished as I worked it into the finish. I have a feeling that this was what I recieved last month as a "mystery" all-in-one.

DP's Max Wax
(Applied with a foam applicator. Removed with a green Cobra MF towel.)
I wanted to give my friend an awesome finish before he went back. I wanted the flakes to pop and simply just look wet. I'm hoping for some sunny seconds before he leaves to get some sun shots for us all.

Other Products Used...
DP Total Interior Cleaner
DP Interior Surface Protectant
DP Krystal Vision Glass Cleaner
DP Wheel Glaze
DP Gloss Tire Gel
DP Spray Surface Shield Paint Sealant

(Applied to all doorjams and under the hood painted areas)

This AM scratched DP Swirl Eliminator and DP Finishing Polish off my list to go with your combo of Poli-seal/Optm. polish ( 75/25 ). Do you have a feel for what you would use for a study diet of polish, Poorboys Polish and Sealant, or your Combo ? Thanks.

Another great job on your buddies car. That scratch removal was impressive. As was the rest.

[justin30513]

Man there are so many choices. I really like both. My combo is good for light duty polishing and protecting in one single step. You will need a little more cut to really get the swirls out though. The 75/25 combo has more cut than the PWS alone. The PWS has more cut than just Poli-Seal.

If it was me, I'd get the Poli-Seal and Optimum Polish. Then DP's Super Swirl Remover for the hard stuff. It's on sale too!

Figured you would like it bro!

Awesome, how the DP SSR cleaned up those scratches!! Nice work as usual, Justin!! Noticed you did more than a 2x2 area at a time, with the polish. I guess you used more product and with the longer working time, allowed you to polish a larger area?
