hi there i use auto gylm at home and at work and i ahve seen this poorboys and wanted 2 know if its betta then auto gylm and if so how much betta what bits do i need 2 get as a start up pack.

 

poorboys for me..check out detailed obsession and speak to Gareth..he'll help you out

 

how much beeta is it then auto gylm i want 2 c bwt useing it

 

Much much better.

 

Great product easy to use, i use it with a Klearcote glaze and Nattys wax...get a great finish!! Wwith none of the dust associated with autoglym.

 

Yeah i agree as above, once you use it once correctly you,ll never look back in my opinion. I,ve just used nattys paste wax and its given the car a totally different look altogether.

 

Used a few different brands over the years but i bought a poorboys tester set off ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...=STRK:MEWNX:IT
think its the nuts gave it a go the other day here's a few pics (taken on my Iphone and in low light)

 

Poorboys do some good stuff but the AG HD wax is great and very durable.

i find that a great alternative to SRP, gives alot smoother feel and lots less dust, easier to use too.

 

Those poorboys equivalents, do they do the same kind of job that SRP does? i.e a slight abrasive/cutting/filling? or is it just a polish? although people are saying its better than SRP so i guess thats all you need to know

 

When you look into the products out there properly. Auto glym is panse

 

i know, but super resin polish is actually pretty good at what it does, its probably one of very few of their products that people in the know still use(apart from the HD wax thingy)

 

super resin is a good pre wax polish, i find that poorboys does the same job, just a bit better, not as abrasive though.

 

Ive got some of that HD auto glym wax.I will have a go at polishing my car with it soon.

 

used that auto gylm hd wax b4 and its top gear been told 2 get that poorboys blackhole paste and then that blue nattys wax ova top is that rite?

 

Heard nothing but good stuff about poorboys would use it myself but was given a gallon of ag polish a few years ago and still got loads..

 

I've used a fair amount of Autoglym stuff and they do have a few good products in their range. I have to say on the whole there is better quality products out their and I think Autoglym are somewhat trying to cash and cut corners using the brand name they have built. For example, I'm certain that their 'Rubber and Trim care' and 'Instant tyre dresser' are exactly the same products just in two different bottles. Same goes for their 'instant show shine' and 'alloy wheel seal'.

 

poorboys exp sealant is good stuff too i used it the ither day then waxed over the top that gave a nice finish too. poorboys rim sealant is nice gear too all there kit seems to be very easy to use.

 

Auto Glym i have to say is the poormans car product. I dont say that because the products are cheap infact they are over priced i say iit because its the best way i can describe the range. Only SRP is half decent and its only good at hiding the problems. Poorboys is much much better, you cant beat Black hole on a dark coloured motor. Can be applied without a machine too. Once you get into the pukka car cleaning products there is no going back. One thing i will say from experience is Dodo juice wax really does not like certain ford types of paint.
Black hole is a glaze. The best car cleaning routine is as follows
Rinse with pressure washer, snow foam, dwell, rinse, 2 buck method wash,rinse, pat dry, clay, wash again, machine polish, IPA wipe down or cleanse, glaze, wax and then seal.
You only need to machine polish and clay maybe every 6 months.

 

Poorboys gear is in a TOTALLY different league to Auto Glym

 

If you are using a sealant you will do this before wax not after mate..unless you mean using something like Zaino Z8, Megs last touch or Dodo Juice Red mist, all these are detailing sprays and you do these last as a final wipe over.

 

got a dark blue car and been told 2 get that dark hole gaze and then natty blue wax is that rite?

 

I find autoglym is hard to work with, very hard to buff off. I use Poorboys and think its great

 

Black hole glaze yes mate, not used the Natty's blue but know quite a few use it and like the results..

 

It is indeed Zaino Z8 Grand Finale I use as a Final Product, its adds SO much more to the result IMO although not cheap

 

"Auto Glym i have to say is the poormans car product"

So you don't rate HD wax then even though it's had great reviews?

 

poorboys is far better imho but dodo juice is my choice for top quality products at sensible prices.
