Need help buying pads for my new Porter Cable.

Does anyone know of any good deals out there for Pads? I just placed an order for a porter cable at coastal tools. I still have to buy some polishing pads but I'm a little confused. I don't want to buy items that I will never use. I was thinking of buying a DAP Kit from www.properautocare.com.



$50.00 It includes:

1- 6in Lambswool Pad

1- Yelo Pad

2- White Pads

1- Grey Pad

2- Terry Bonnets

Or I could just buy pads:

1- Yelo Pad

1- White Pad

1- Grey Pad

I think these are $8.00 to $11.00 a piece.



I already have good cotton terry towels and micro fiber towels for buffing off polish and wax.

I have a black 2004 Maxima with light swirl marks (my wife dried it with a dirty bath towel left outside), and a white 2000 Civic that has always been kept clean but never been waxed. My civic will need the most attention. Any suggestions?
 
Tried 7 1/2" "The Edge" pad today. Removing swirls (dealer installed) from a new, black Mazda 6.



Worked well enough. I felt more in control with the 6" pad from CMA or Meg's.



Just two cents

TOL has the better prices compared to propertools or CMA or whatever they are called today. TOL 7.5 Lake Country pads are still cheaper than CMA's 6.5, good figure.
