Hey guys my first post!

I recently purchased PC 7336 with edge pads. I was wondering do I need to lubricate the pad before waxing or polishing? I'm using adam's buttery wax. In the past I would wet the cotton bonnet with water when using an orbital, but I've only polished and buffed with foam never applied wax with it.

Thanks

Use a QDer to mist the pad one qiuck mist from any QDer even water don't saturate the pad ,as you go to polish you'll have problems with sling or the product will run down the paint,one short mist will do..

These are some great products to consider. (http://www.autogeek.net/xmtpadcacofs.html) One helps free the clumps of product when you are cleaning the pad and the other helps with lubricating the pad when polishing or waxing.
