Hi I have a black 350z that i am going to be polishing soon (has a lot of swirls) I am going to be using a porter cable 7424. The products I am using are Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover 3.0, Wolfgang Finishing Glaze 3.0, Mothers pure carnauba wax.

Was wondering is someone could help me in choosing which pads I should get.. I was thinking about getting these what do you guys think ?
orange pad
white polishing
black finishing


is this the correct order

use orange pad for the swirl remover, white for finishing glaze, black for wax ? Im confused on this

 

yes that is the right order

 

i would use blue for wax. also what pads are you using? the ccs pads?

the thing about the glaze is if you do the correction process the right way, you should not need the glaze, but it will add some gloss if anything.

the black pad "can" leave some marring behind.

 

thanks !

 

I am about to order so should I get the blue pad for wax or the black ? They are ccs pads.

 

so diffrent color pads has diffrent materials or something? i already ordered the porter cable im just lost on the pads and what the color means..and brand as well

 

Ya they are used for diff things just read this it will help a lot

blue or red for wax, but i prefer putting wax on by hand.

black can leave some marring on your corrected finish.

the ones listed above seem to be the favored ones, the ccs ones with the dimples.

www.autogeek.net is another website that usually has stuff on sale

 

awsome thanks!

 

Have you considered using a sealant instead of a wax? Something like klasse all-in-one. The finish isn't as nice as a good wax job. However it last 6-12 months as opposed to 6-8 weeks. You could always put wax on top of the sealant to improve the finish if you like.

 

poorboys world exp sealant is a good one as well.

 

I have mothers sealant and glaze should I use this then the wax ? i usually wax my car once a month

 

yes wax is last.

 

try opti-seal and then wax it afterward i think thats what presidential uses afterward from what ive read somewhere in the thread. ive seen videos on it on youtube and it looks like its some pretty good stuff
