REVIT TO SKETCHUP
Open your 3D view
Export ... CAD Formats ... dwg
Click on the Options...
Specify under Solids (3d Views Only):
Next...
Export as ACIS Solids
(The only advantage I've seen with Exporting Polymesh is when you are exporting/importing complex model geometries and mostly this is used in MAX, Maya or Rhino for vertices editing)
Now you can start painting up your Revit model in Sketchup.
SKETCHUP TO REVIT
Running a little low on time so to export from Sketchup to Revit, you need to have Sketchup Pro I've found to make it work best but essentially you need to go to:
File
Export
3d Model
Specify ACAD files .dwg
Then Import the geometry into Revit.
The cool thing about this import is that you can replace the model walls with Revit building components to save you some time.

Alright so the next thing you notice is that when you click on your model it highlights the whole shootin match so click on your model right click and hit explode.
