Re: Meg's Pad V.S LC Pad???

I find the orange pads to be just a bit too aggressive to get good results with a PC.

If you are using a rotary, then forget what I said.

Re: Meg's Pad V.S LC Pad???

HOLY HELL, that is what ALLURE left you with??? WOW!!!! I was thinking your swirls might have been light, but if thats what was left, did he even polish it?

anyway, I would go with orange and 80, then yellow and 80, or three passes of 80 on yellow...see what i am getting at???

lc orange with 80, then megs yellow with 80 is what I would probably do...unless you have other polishes/compounds...no need to glaze IMO because 80 is similar to a glaze, hence the term SPEED GLAZE...

Some Megs #83 DACP might be better to start with.

Re: Meg's Pad V.S LC Pad???

I would do a test spot on #80...and see what happens...i will probaly do #80 with LC orange pad or meg's yellow.....and #9 with a LC white pad..and wax it....

ALSO! should i buy the CCS LC pad? Or the low profile Pad like all the How-To's videos???
