Just received my Das-6 pro :-)

I will be using it tomorrow for the first time. I was wondering what colour pads do what?
I have a white yellow and orange pads?
Thanks

I recommend you read up on detailing world before attacking your car if you are unsure on what pads do what.

I know how to do it I'm just double checking about the pads? I take it the harder they are the more aggressive they are?

 

[Yellow Dave]

what pads are they? different manufacturers use different colours for cut level. Link of the kit you got?

The Orange, White and Yellow pads are good to be fair. But I have also used Green and Black Hex pads.

Smittytom - Pics needed of your 172, it looks mint in your Avatar.

The white, orange and yellow sound like the Menzerna kit

White is compounding
Orange is polishing
Yellow is finishing

I take it, it is the Menzerna kit you have?

 

[Y7 ADW]

The Menzerna compounds and polishes are very good, I was very impressed to be honest.

 

[Toms_clio]

Yer I got the Menz kit from clean you car
Y7ADW after seeing your thread it made my mind up about getting it!!

 

[Y7 ADW]

You will be fine with Menz pads for now. I used them on my cousins Honda CTR and they worked perfectly.
