I still find difficulty in determining pad manufacturer with regard to cut & pad color.



In order to better organize some of this information, perhaps we can have a thread for Edge, Lake Country, Meguiars, etc.



Here are Edge pads: http://autopia.org/forum/machine-polishing/88030-edge-users-what-pad-do-you-use-what.html



Here are Meguiars pads: http://autopia.org/forum/machine-polishing/88143-meguiars-pad-users-what-pad-do-you-use-what.html



So here goes...



For Lake Country users, what pad do you use most often with what product to solve a particular problem?
 
jeez 128 views and not a single response??

I like to use an orange pad with XMT3 followed with Klasse AIO on a white pad. Then i will either apply Pinnacle Liquid Souveran with a blue pad or Klasse SG with Grey pad.
 
The problem with answering this is: It depends. Paint hardness, defect depth, etc.



I typically start with a polishing pad (doesn't matter which brand) and a light polish and move up as needed.
 
On Meg's



Cutting Pad #7006, I use it for Compounds



Polishing Pad #8006, I use this one for polishing or remove lite swirls & etc.



Finishing Pad #9006 I haven't use this one, but its soft and I need to find a good product for this one.





Meguiar's Has lots of good Compounds and Polishes , You just have to find which one works for you. Just take your time



One thing on the #7006 cutting pad, BE VERY careful it can BURN your paint off. Stay away from the edges.
 
For defect removal, I'll use either LC white (heavy) or yellow wool pads. I never have the need to use both on one application. One just cuts a little less. Then I go to foams pads for finishing.
