Alright.. looks like i've decided on SSR #2.5 then, then i'll follow that up with #9 since I already bought it. Then the Klasse AIO, NXT, and #26.. this is going to be a long process, but should be fun to see the results. My dad's truck will actually look good again

Here's a couple suggestions based on your comments, as well as my experiences using all of the products you've noted. I'd suggest one of the two following options.

Option #1: Apply SSR #2.5 then Klasse AIO, or
Option #2: Apply SSR #2.5, then NXT and a topper of #26

I'd be reluctant to apply #9 under Klasse due to the additives in #9. I also would see no benefit whatsoever in applying NXT over Klasse. I think that would be an unnecessary step. After you use the SSR #2.5 polish, if you opt for Option # 2, I doubt you'll need to apply #9 either. SSR #2.5 'should' address your swirl/scratch issues.

Good luck on your truck.

RP,

I believe BigDeal was pointing out that #9 does have considerable oils/fillers that it leaves behind. Both Klasse and Zaino really work best when then are applied to previous layers of Klasse or Zaino, or to a clean paint surface free of all oils, silicones, solvent and what have you. Poorboy's polishes do not contain any oils, silicones, or fillers that might inhibit the bond of Klasse (or Zaino). Still, I recommend that even with Poorboy's polishes, a silcone free QD, or a product like Spray & Wipe should be used to lightly go over the paint surface before applying Klasse. This insures that any solvents or dusting left behind is removed.

What Boss said....... Thanks Boss! Anytime I'm using any sort of synthetic product (Klasse, UPP, etc), I always try and steer clear of using anything under it that contains oils or silicones. Klasse for example, is especially picky about the bonding surface it's applied to. And truth be known, I'd be hesitant to use #9 or a similar product under NXT either. Just makes better sense to me anyway to use something like the Poorboy SSR products under a synthetic sealer, rather than to use #9 (or the like) and then try and remove the residue left behind prior to topcoating.

The word 'additives' threw me for a loop. I gotcha.
