Change Polish Or Pad First/ Edge Pads?

[DieselMDX]

Confused a little, lets say i have some swirls and scratches on a panel and a white pad and 106ff is not getting the job done. Should I go up in polish or go up in pad and keep the same polish to remove them?


Also I have heard some rumblings that the orange 6" wave pad is more aggressive then the yellow pad is this true?

Thanx

Always product first IMO
Although going pad first isn't wrong either

Let's say you try a white polish pad with 106FF and that doesn't cut it, I'd switch to a 2000 grit polish (sfx 2) and then move to an orange light cut with that and then prima swirl if still not corrected.

I generally try and go with a stronger polish before a stronger pad. Just personal preference I guess - I've always found softer pads easier to work with, and I feel that a stronger polish will finish down better on a soft pad than a milder polish on a more aggressive pad.

You're using way too soft of a pad for PO106FF. The Edge white foam is their lightest polishing foam. I'd step up to the green or yellow.
