SSR vs. XMT

[bambo2888]

which do y'all think is better? are they pretty much comparable?

I've used both lines and personally I prefer the XMT line. They're both great polish lines, but XMT does not dust and the SSRs at least when I used them threw dust all over the place.

Just keep in mind XMT #3 is approximately the same abrasive level of SSR2.5. I only mention it because not everyone realizes that.

:iagree: I used both and liked both. you really cannot go wrong with either one. With Poorboy's SSR you get more product for the buck (dusts very little), with Pinnacle XMT you get a little less product for the buck, but you also get no dust.

Would you say XMT 1 is less than or equal to SSR1?

XMT1 = SSR1
XTM2 = SSR2
XMT3 = SSR2.5

Hope this helps.

It certainly does.

if you buy the bigger sized bottles of xmt, its a very good value. lasts a long time too

comes down to the color. I find that SSR products give me a better look on black cars/ dark shades.

Let me throw this out there... Compare both those polishes to the Optimum line-up?

I enjoy using SSR2.5 and SSR1, but it does dust. I wouldn't say a lot, but it's there.

What I usually do is was the part that I'll be detailing, then when I'm done, wash the whole car and get rid of the dust. Works well!
