Where's the other SRP thread?

neilmcl · 15-03-2017, 03:26 PM

There was a thread discussing whether SRP had any abrasives or "cut" to it and it seems to have mysteriously vanished. Only just contributed it, went out for half an hour and it's gone. Anyone?

I asked for it to be deleted.

Fair enough, any particular reason?

I couldn't be bothered with the aggro.

I was looking for it too, had a good photo in support of it.
Shame it went the way it did comment wise.

Looks like I missed all the fun when I popped out then

So did i.
Im back on the SRP again, and the results are great, especially topped off the EGP. Ive had some really great comments, from folk who know i like to polish, about this car, asking which expensive stuff have i used here, i smile back and say, just Autoglym

Sounds like we missed an interesting one too...

At risk of starting it all over again, what were the main questions in the thread?

I'm probably a little guilty of perpetuating that the current formula of SRP has little or no cut or at least less than it used to - I read it on the internet and assumed it must be true!

The question remains "how much" correction can you get from SRP?

DrEskimo · 17-03-2017, 12:55 PM

I think there is a confusion that polishing is the same as compounding. Not even a dedicated polish will remove swirls and this is highlighted in this video from Larry:

so quite how SRP does (and by hand..!) is beyond me. We all know it's important to use an IPA after any paint correction to remove residual oils and see the 'true' finish. Once you remove the fillers from SRP that will show you how good it is at any correction. Can you remove these fillers with just IPA...?
