Proper Auto Care generally cautions against the use of a cutting pad, such as the yellow foam pad, on a dual action polisher. The aggressive nature of the pad can cause a `compounding haze` on the surface, which will temporarily dull the surface. This haze is normal, and experienced paint polishers usually don`t bat an eye at it this. However for first time polishers, this can be an uneasy feeling.
So if you are using a dual action polisher, keep in mind that stepping up to a cutting pad often adds an additional step of polishing to remove the hazing before final polishing. Again not a big deal, but often unsettling.
As far as the specific combination regarding using a yellow pad with Menzerna Intensive Polish, it shouldn`t be a problem. Intensive Polish is a more dry polish so it may dust a little more, but it could be just what you need to get the swirls out of the tough clear coat. Keep in mind that it may require you do go back over paint with Intensive Polish on either a white or orange pad to remove the `haze` before final polishing.
