A question best asked yesterday afternoon before you ordered it

The only PoorBoys product I've used is the shampoo, and I am more than happy with it
If the product was rubbish, Polished Bliss wouldn't stock it mate

Poorboys make good priducts. For the price they're hard to beat. You'd need to go a price range or 2 to really notice a huge difference.

On a budget Poorboy's is unbeatable, hence why we continue to stock it in and amongst the higher end ranges we do. Money no object then Blackfire is awesome on most popular Scooby colours, and takes things to a whole new level in terms of finish quality.

Again, on a budget, Autoglym SRP is used to great effect on such scratches and marks. Overlaid with a quality LSP it works really well. I just done mine for bloody bird feet scratches on my bonnet, and I have a couple to do on the roof. Great honest product IMHO.
