^^^See the uber-detailing elite know about the stuff. Never heard of FK1 but it'll be a tuff sell for me to switch.

I'd never heard of it either until last year, and I'm not even remotely close to "uber-detailing elite." Someone would prolly have a hard time prying me away from my Optimum stuff, but I'm always up for trying new waxes/sealants/quick detailers/etc. I got the FK1 stuff just because I could try out all of their products I was curious about for $20, as opposed to spending $50+ on a few products from other lines and wasting most of it. I'm too indecisive to buy just one product, and I'm cheap so $15-20 just to try 1 product bugs me. I'd never buy anything over 6-8oz if everyone would sell bottles that small at a decent price.

Well from what youre saying it sounds like the products are probably very similiar in their performance so yes, cost becomes the next concern. I dont know how much the FK1 is but most of the PB stuff is about 14 for a bottle (forget the size) which is reasonable enough to me.

Getting smaller samples would be nice to test/try out on your own and I wish I could have done that with some of the products Ive used in the past.

And ok Shady, I will have to borrow my GF's camera this weekend since my digital isnt as good. I'll get some close ups of the high swirl areas and they're lack there of =)

I've used and still use Poorboy's EX-P...you'll see me use it in alot of my threads . I'd give more props too Poorboy's IF it was their own product, but I've learned it's rebadged/rebottled Chemical Guys stuff.

I've tried Poorboy's a few times but I always end up going back to Zaino with a carnauba top (Sovereign).
