OK, you and I just reverse the steps; I buff the LSP off with the Cyclo/microsuede and then go over it again by hand. Probably works out about the same either way (at least I could never see a difference).

These new Ultrafine wool pads coming will be to replace the bonnet approach, and we'll see if they do anything better/worse on the appearance side.
Just to make sure we're on the same page, what are you gonna use the Ultrafine wool pads for?

As said, the UF pads will replace the microsuede - so for all intent purposes nothing regime wise will change, only the choice of material with which to do it.
So, polish, apply LSP, buff manually, final buff with UF pads.

Hmm..I dunno....I've never felt *any* wool pads that I'd let touch my paint like that. I don't even trust most foam or some MFs once the paint is 100% the way I want it and I've started LSPing!

I'd worry that any wool, no matter how fine, would instill microscopic marring Even plush MF bonnets aren't soft enough for me on some cars, and those pass the CD test even under magnification.

I'd sure be careful if/when you try those out!

Cheers Accumulator - I understand where you're coming from, but hey, we'll find out soon enough, I guess.
