I tried getting some U-Pol Fantastic from Jawel in Birmingham. They sent me a tub of U-Pol Easy-1. When I spoke to them the guy swore that the U-Pol Fantastic, Easy1 and Easy 7 are all the same productand it is only a marketing ploy that they have 3 different names!

Can anyone confirm this before I open the tin and find myself £20 down for no reason.

Is there a difference between the products (U-pol has different write ups about each), I need to know if anyone has tested all of the products and can tell me the difference.

Does it really matter - if you specifically ordered the U-Pol Fantastic and got Easy1, then they should change it for the product you ordered - end of!

You'll find U POL make filler for most other manufacturers so will all be pretty similar. We've use Easy1 and its pretty good so I wouldn't worry about it.

U POL used to make a filler in a black and purple tin a couple years ago but stopped making it, personally I thought that was the dog's doo dah's.
