what pad do i use?

[stoddie]

hi guys,
i know its probably been posted before in the past but i cant find it!

this is what i have:

megs scratch x
megs step 1, 2 and 3
megs #80
megs#81
4" orange pad
4" white pad
orange 6" pads
white 6" pads
black 6" pad
red 5" pad

the car is silver with some swirls that i can see. would i be right in saying i dont really need to use the orange pads - only for really bad marks?

any help would be a great help!
cheers

Megs Scratch x - Should be done by hand.
Megs Step 1 - Polishing pad
Megs Step 2 - Polishing pad
Megs Step 3 - Polishing Pad
Megs #80 - Light cut or Polishing Pad
Megs#81 - Polishing Pad, Finishing Pad, I normally use by hand.

The cutting pad is only really needed on weathered or swirled paint or in the areas where you have a defects. Start with the mild option first and work your way up.

Alot of the products you have listed do the same thing btw.

As a process maybe look at.

Scratch X by hand on Trouble Spots
Megs 80
Megs 81
Megs stage 3 Carnuba
