Purple foam wool pads

Why would you do that :grinno: Use a finishing pad, like an LC blue pad



I agree with Buegie, the Purple Foamed Wool Pad finishes down so nicely that 70% of the time, a polishing pad is not needed so you can to a finishing pad like a LC Black, Blue, or Red pad.



But to address the Orig Posters question, I guess you could use a finishing polish with the PFW Pad but you would probably get more cut than what you wanted in the first place and therefore might as well have used a compound polish.
 
Wool is a product intended for correction. Foam is not, in most cases. It's made to finish and create a beautiful gloss. Nonetheless, I will use wool all the down to Intensive Polish (medium to medium-light corrective ability).



On soft paints, you will need a finishing pad. On harder paints, a polishing pad will be sufficient.
 
I recently polished my wife's 2006 BMW 325i with M105 and PFW on a rotary. It finished down amazingly well, but that is probably because the clear coat on that car is rock hard. I still finished with Menzerna 106FF and a white foam pad, which seemed to add a little gloss.
