AIO & Pad Selection

If I am using a product like Poli Seal or 360 and only want the correcting and cleaning ability of the product would I accomplish that if i use my PC with a grey or blue pad? What I want to do is not get too agreesive on my paint....

Re: AIO & Pad Selection

your pad choice is ok, and I too would never go back light abrasive when using and AIO. The chemical cleaners or light polishes are doing the work, and the buffer is making it easier IMO.

Re: AIO & Pad Selection

you could use a white pad if wanted, I would not go any more abrasive with AIO myself.

I agree..white is the tops for a AIO product...the pad it self may do a little correcting..but depends on the paint..to soft it may micro mar..to hard it will just help clean the paint and no corrections....

blue and white best for AIO's....

If you need more correction get a more aggressive polish.

I have tried it and I got massive micro marring...most AIO type product were not designed for corrections but more for cleaning the paint...some do have micro abrasives..but they are not effective with a cut pad... but more so with a polishing pad....as said a white pad would be tops with a AIO product...
