There are only 3-4 colors, so get them all.

Ok, that doesn't help much! ;) I would like to know which pad is recommended with each product from someone who use the rupes Bigfoot ibrid nano with these product.

It may not help much because there is no set answer. What works on one paint may not work on another. Always use the least aggressive pad and polish first. This is why a test spot is necessary.

Thank you, did you have experienced with the rupes nano black pad?? It seems to be the one I could skipped if I don't want to buy them all. Thank you for your tips. I am a newbie in the domain but I like to tackle some new project! Here's my baby! I've never done any polish to her! It will be a fun winter project for sure!!

My Rupes Nano came with pads and polish and the yellow pads have been used a lot for swirls and marring. The blue pads have been used for compounding and scratches.
