What is the furry pad used for??.....I have seen it used as an applicator , called polisher, called buffer??.....what is the main use of this pad/ bonnet?...



I`ve used it on my polisher for years as the final buff, and now with my PC I think is used as padding for the terry cloth bonnets....pardon my ignorance... :rolleyes:

the wool pad is used for agressive compounding



it is also used behind terry bonnents for applying wax etc.

Firts thanks for clearing that up, now I feel like an idiot asking these questions since I`ve been doing this for a while but what to actually master the order for example:



I use a cutting pad to apply polishes, this means i could use the wool pad too?...



After I use a softer pad to apply the wax and I could use the terry cloth too??.



I used the terry cloth to take off the wax, but apparently that is wrong, what or which do you recommend.



I have microfibers as my last pass to get most of the dust off...



If you or someone can link me to a thread that may have these answers I`ll appreciated...



Thanks

1) Use the wool pad only if you really need the extra cut. Just think of it as stronger than the cutting pad and ignore the fact that it`s this "wool" stuff...



2) Not sure what you mean here. Not many people use terry bonnets for much of anything. Use a finishing pad to apply wax and buff it off by hand or a MF bonnet.

4DSC thanks for the reply, I guess the one last thing I was doing wrong was trying to find a pad that would take off the wax....but I should have figured that by hand was the answer.....



I appreciate your time answering this thread.
