I would steer clear of using any sort of abbrassive pads even on the insides as they will scratch, let the acid do the work.
Cleaned up some dirty wheel inners yesterday using some Wonder Wheels and Brake Cleaner, got there in the end, keeping the wonder wheels wet so the acid could do it's job...
Nice results, using some intensive polish would have sped things up a lot on swirls like that.
Glad you noticed the richness it gives to the paint, that is where a machine comes into it's own.
The Megs cutting pad should be fine, I find it easier to use a 4 inch spot pad though.
Being as you are using it just on glass you could use the pad again without cleaning it properly, not really good practice but not going to do any harm.
Will clean the glass nicely, AG Glass polish on a polishing or even light cut pad works brilliantly on glass.
It will clean the dirt out of them, but not remove them, not anywhere near abrassive enough to do anything to them.
You wont polish out the scratches with the likes of AG Glass Polish, you will need a proper glass compound like jewelers rouge but will risk deforming the glass trying to remove them.
Got both there Detail Spray and Field Glaze spray, neither add anything much in looks on a well prepared surface.
95% of any of the depth and gloss are created in the polishing stage.
