I want to order a PC + pads + polish and i have some questions.

First of all what pad size ? Should i go for 6.5" and 4" pads + backing plates or should i go for the 5.5" pads (LC pads)

I was going to order Menz SIP and Menz 106ff but i heard that Menz polishes are designed to work better with a rotary than a PC, is this true ? Should i go for another brand of polishes ?

In case it helps my car it's a '04 SL55 (No ideea if it has the scratch resistant CC)
There are no scratches on it, just washing swirls so dunno if i really need the SIP but i was thinking to order it "just in case" :)

Menzerna is great for Germany paint, but if you are going with a Porter Cable I would suggest XMT.
XMT Porter Cable 7424 (http://www.autogeek.net/xmtpocainswr.html)

XMT and Menzerna are both good..

It's seriously your choice.

You can use Menzerna polishes with a PC, that's fine.

IP on Orange then FF on White should take care of it, depending on the scratches/swirls.

Are you able to post pictures of your paint? Thanks
