I am strongly learning towards buying M105 and M205. Also, I am considering CCS 4 inch pads to compliment the PC better. The question is orange and white colors (4 inch) are in mind for these products. However, I am thinking about passing on the white and getting green.

What do you guys think?

It doesn't hurt to try new stuff. Get 2-3 of each pad(all colors). You will eventually need it. I use my 4 inch for all tight spots and bumpers.

As louie said get atleast 3 pads of each color. M105 is a great compound. M205 is an o.k. finishing polish just doesn't have the gloss off 85rd, 106fa, scholls, or Ultrafina. It also isn't a bad polish to clean up some minor defects and then finish up with another polish to bring the gloss to where it needs to be.

I betcha 205 and a green pad would make a good 1 step polish and remove some decent swirls on certain paints and finish down decently enough. I've never used the green pads but I have used 205 with white and gone right to LSP afterwards. It actually had a decent cut for a "finishing polish".

Which green pad are you talking about? The "coarse" once slotted between the orange & white or the one between white and gray?

between white and gray.

I've been thinking about trying the finer green one with FP II to see what will happen. I've always used FP II with the white pad.
