ssr2.5 = orange
VM = ?

I have no idea what orange, yellow, and black pads might be, but....

For polishes, and that includes swirl removers, I use a polishing pad.
Speed from 4 to 6 on the PC.

For LSP's I use a finishing pad.
Speed of 2 to 4.

Artic, you should get together with machB5, he has alomst the same identical question.

Pads colors are different for different manufacturers, what might be polishing pad for one could be a finishing pad for another.
You may want to go to topicare's site to fine out what each pad is, so we can better answer your question.

I also pretty much follow what Charles does in regards to pad/product and speed.

Try here for a great reference for pads and what products are good to use on each.


Along with Beanbag's Abrasiveness Breakdown (sounds like a new dance beat :) ), the best reference link I've seen for pads. Thanks!!! :holiday:
 
Stick with just one or two companys to make things easier.

If your using the ssr's products by poorboys only use the lake country pads.(to keep it simple and effective)

also they have a chart that shows the use for the pads.
