    Help with SMR for my next order

    I have basically everything I want, but im lost as far as SMRs go...there are so many.

    I have my eye on Megs DACP. Would DACP followed by PB SSR1 with a PC take care of most swirls I would encoutner on customers cars, or will I need something more aggressive...like Meguiars No. 82 Swirl Free Polish? Or what about the 3M Perfect It III series? (Keep in mind I dont have a rotary, so everything has to be PC friendly)

    I have heard good things about DACP but have not used it...but The entire Poorboys SSR line is awesome a bottle each of 3 -2 and 1 should arm you for any job. (most of them can be accomplished with 2 and 1 - 3 for the harder ones).
    You have activated my special ability....

    DACP is more agressive than swirl free polish ( by 50%). Without seeing the swirls you are going to encounter it is hard to say. Since you want to use the least agressive product for each car to do the job, I think I would get a couple of swirl removers.

    I persoanlly would have DACP, Speed glaze, and SFP. I would also have SSR1 and SSR2 for those times when I work in the sun.

    FWIW, I use speed glaze most of the time. It takes care of most the swirls that I see.

    I would go for one with fillers and one without. Poorboys products are superb and probably the easiest to use. Humidity? You can practically use the products in the rain. I like the 3M SWR for dark colors when I have to do a bit of filling like on black or red. You don`t want to take off too much paint, so it`s wise to use something with filler when you need it.

    I searched through the hundreds of photos I have for my DACP followed by SSR1, and don`t have any close up before and afters, but I can assure you, DACP has been a powerful tool to my arsenal!

    P.S. I`ve only had DACP since December 1, 2003, so I`ve only done a few cars with it.....sorry

    The Poorboy SSR`s do any job I`ve encountered and they`ve done it well, even in the sun. I don`t use any of the others any more. Why confuse things? SSR 1, 2, or 3 followed by polish with or without carnuba and then a couple coats of EX and detailing nirvana has been achieved.
    Dream big and be willing to do the work to get there.

    the order of aggressivness (from highest to lowest) goes:

    SSR3
    DACP
    SSR2
    SSR1

    correct? (i know 3 is higher than 2 and 1...im just making sure i know how aggressive DACP is)
