    Recommendations? One Step MF Pad Combo for Soft Paint

    Hey Guys!

    I have been searching the forums and can't seem to find exactly what I'm looking for. I regularly use the Rupes foam system with great success for one steps. Sometimes I run into soft, annoying paints like black Tesla's. I have BNS MF Pads but I am about to purchase Megs MF's.

    Anyone have one step recommends using MF pads on soft paint? It doesn't have to be MF pads, I just want more cut that doesn't need to be followed up on soft paint.

    Thanks Guys!

    This recommendation for Tesla paint has come from Jsmooth

    Megs MF finishing pad with M205 followed by a foam finishing pad and HD Polish all for the Rupes.

    This is a great setup for working with the soft paint on a Tesla

    I second this, I love the meguiars microfiber pads. Meguiars designed them to have the quick good results of the rotary, without harming your paint

    Awesome! Thanks a ton. I'm going to try this combo up against Rupes Yellow and Sonax Perfect Finish.
