I, too, am a fan. I use the SSRs, Bug Squash, S&W, S&G, and the sudsy shampoo. I've also just picked up some QW+ to use on my S100 top coat.

Some folks aren't fans of the SSRs, but I know how to use them to get my desired results and thats what matters to me.

Bug Squash is awesome stuff. Diluted down and used as a prewash (through a foam gun) really gets rid of some stuck-on crud off the paint. Same review goes for the Super Slick & Suds. Great lubricity, smell, and cleaning power.

I've just used the Spray & Wipe today, and it worked very well getting off dust/rain spots with no marring.

I really want to try the Natty's Blue Paste Wax on the black paint. I've heard reviews that it's durability exceeds that of S100/P21S. Can anyone who has used NB comment?

I too have had really good results with the Poorboys SSR polishes. I recenly detailed my wife's MY04 Toyota Highlander and it had a fairly long scrape on one of the rear quarterpanels. I buffed quite a bit of white paint out of the finish with SSR3,2,1. Topped it all off with Klasse SG. Looks good now.

As for the Poorboy polishes go light on the amount of product and the dust issue greatly diminishes.

I also think Poorboy polishes are great for beginners with a PC because it's very hard to damage your finish.

I would also like to add Poorboy's Leather Stuff to my list of products I didn't like. There was a lot of hype on Detail City when this product was released and frankly I was completely unimpressed. It left way too shiney a finish and cleaning power was mild at best.

I haven't tried the Leather Stuff, but anything that's a leather cleaner/conditioner/protectant is just trying to be too many things.

I would agree that a leather cleaner/conditioner combo product should not be used alone to maintain your leather. However, I've been using the Pinnacle Leather Cleaner/Conditioner for a while now as a kind of QD for leather. It's just something I use to give a quick clean up to the seats after a wash.

I'm Using Poorboy EX-P sealant.

Simple going on and taking off.. very little to no dust. I don't have much to compare it to but I'm happy with the results and time will tell if it lasts

It's not that they don't work, but like I said, dusting and working time... and you brought up how well they finish down.. A very good point.
