    First impressions after this DISGUSTING 335i I'm working on. Honestly.. I think the car was washed with a brillo pad.

    S03+: An amazing polish for what it is. It's working time is that of PO203S with more cut. HOWEVER, I will not be throwing away my Fast Cut Plus or M105 for this. This cuts a lot like SIP, maybe a tad bit more. But finishes down OUSTANDINGLY well.

    S17: Not a fan right now. I used it with a green uber pad, and after heavy polishing with S03+ and a Green 3M pad, I stepped down to this. I went from almost zero micro-marring, to micro-marring after the S17/uber green. I'll need to work with this polish more.. but I quickly put it away from Extra Fine Compound.

    S40: What a GREAT finisher! It finishes a LOT like 85rd but doesn't take 3 years to break down.

    Verdict after ONE day with them: For the money, I'd prefer to spend the same amount on some 3M UK polishes.

    As an aside.. the bottles LOOK cool. But my god they are hard to handle. I'll be buying sample-size bottles to put the polish in. They are so awkward to squeeze polish out of.

    That's a lot of detailed info...thanks, dude...Scholl polishes would be something I would wanna try on my newly aquired Jet Black 2009 E70 X5...
    By the way, I haven't used 85RD yet, I have it, but I tend to use 106FA instead...3 years to break down, huh?

    nice haul, S17 is one of my favourites, we polished a black subaru with it at the meet and finish was amazing.

    S40 sounds really nice, sounds like something I could definitely use. The work time of PO85RD is ridiculously long, great for jeweling but when you're just trying to get that final step in on a time crunch it's a killer.

    I like them on a DA. This Camaro was polished with SO3+ and finished with S30 on my PC. I think it looks ok.

    d00t Welcome to Detailing

    After working with these polishes on 3 cars no.. I'm NOT impressed. Maybe I've been using and loving my 3M UK stuff for too long now. But everything that Scholls offers.. 3M does better. I can't get the same results in the same time with the same process with the scholl's that I can with 3M.

    I'll be selling off most of it, but keeping a few oz's for myself for the future. But I get outstanding results with my 3M UK polishes, and they're really easy to use with NO drama. And they're extremely versatile when coupled with different pads, pressures, and speeds.

    Just my opinion and review. Again, my results my differ from others.. but why change what works well for me? :shrug:

    How much for each of them if you selling them off?

    d00t Welcome to Detailing

    Since most people can't (maybe don't?) want to afford the full bottles.. I'm going to sell them in 4oz sizes.

    So it'd be $10 shipped for S03+, $7 shipped for S17, and $8 shipped for S40.

    And 4oz should last you AT LEAST 2-3 cars because these polishes work wet and are easy to spread.
