A couple of questions, what SSR is it? 1, 2, 2.5, or 3? Also, are you using it by hand or machine?

There really shouldn't be a need to use it every time, and if there is then we need to have a look at your washing and drying technique. Basically it is an abrasive polish and so will be taking tiny amounts of paint off every time you use it. You should only need to polish your car two or three times a year.

Hi chris

Thanks for your reply iv been using 2.5 and iv been hand polishing iv been polishing my car about every 3 to 4 months or so I'm really happy with the results I was just worried about the long term effects because it's an abrasive polish I used it my last clean for the first time well pleased with the results

Every 3 to 4 months should be ok, might be worth getting a less abrasive polish though, maybe try the SSR1, you will hopefully get the same results plus the peace of mind you are not taking tonnes of paint off  :smiley:
