I've had these for quite some time, but after spending some time with them again, I thought I should review them.
Product: Poorboys Polish with Carnauba
http://poorboysworld.com/products/pb-polish.jpg
Price: $21.95 for 32 oz.
Manufacturer's Claim: "This is a non-abrasive polish containing 100% carnuba wax. It cleans and seals a paint's finish in one step. This is an excellent one-step product for paints in good condition. It works very well with orbital buffers.
* EASY ON/ EASY OFF
* NON-ABRASIVE
* 100% CARNUBA
* UV PROTECTANT
* GREAT ON ALL CLEARCOATS/PAINTS
* USE IN SUN or SHADE
* REMOVES OXIDATION, HAZE, FINE SCRATCHES, SWIRL MARKS, SAP,TAR, BUGS, OVER-SPRAY, OLD PRODUCTS and more!
* USE ON: CHROME, PLASTIC, & HARD RUBBER
* REMOVES BIRD DROPPINGS & WATER STAINS (acid rain)
* VIRTUALLY ELIMINATES WATER SPOTTING
* NO PRE-CLEANERS NECESSARY!
* YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO IT ALL IN ONE DAY!"
Usage: I applied this with a polishing pad at speed 5 on the PC using light to moderate pressure.
Overall Thoughts and Notes: This product goes on easy and comes off easy. It has pretty good cleaning ability and can handle light oxidation well. It has limited ability with swirls, etc. It leaves behind a nice finish and makes a good base for a wax or sealant.
Complaints: None to speak of.

Product: Poorboys EX Sealant
http://poorboysworld.com/products/ex.jpg
Price: $15.95 for 16 oz.
Manufacturer's Claim: An Amino Functional Resin with Carnuba. Use it post-polishing to ensure EXtra shine, EXtra protection and EXtra long-lasting beauty for your vehicles.
Usage: I applied this by hand using a cotton applicator (primed with distilled water)
Overall Thoughts and Notes: The product is a little thick, so getting a thin application took a little work. After 30-45 minutes, removal was nearly effortless. The finish was smooth, had moderate slickness, and a slight, warm glow. Previous testing shows roughly two months durability.
Complaints: More durability would be great.
