<< < (2/3) > >>

Sorry to bring this back up but I seen you said a orange and white pad are fine to start with but would you not say a black pad would be better than a white? I take it you ment orange for 105 and white for 205.

Nope on standard VAG paint white pad is fine.
i always use a white pad to refine factory paint.
Black pads have no cut so aren't very good as removing any holograms that you may use.

you can use any pad with any polish so if you need only a little more cut you can use 205 with an orange pad?

Chris92:
So does this sound about right:

Weakest to most aggressive, if it's not working il go to the next step down.

Start:
White pad with 205
Orange pad with 205
Orange pad with 105

Or

Start:
White pad with 205
White pad with 105
Orange pad with 105

Then after that stage would I do the whole car with a black pad with 205 to refine it and finsh?

Please bare with me  :rolleye:

So that's the order you use first to correct the paint yes? Then after the paint is corrected do I go over the car with 205 and a white pad to refine?
