Spent about an hour polishing the hood of my 81 Corvette(Original Paint) with Meg's 205 and Grey pad and PC, plus touching up some minor scratches with Meg's Scratch-X. Turned out great. Now, should I, or is there anything I can use from Meg's that would bring that shine up just a bit more? A Glaze or Sealant possibly on a blue pad? I plan to use Collinite as my LSP. Thanks for your help.

menz 85rd (I know its not megs but its great stuff) will get that baby to where nothing is left on the table. I dont have as much experience with it as some other people but I know everyone likes it. Use it with your grey or blue pad.

Maybe some 3M Ultrafine (http://www.autogeek.net/3m-ultra-fine-polish.html)

Is 85rd still considered an abrasive polish?

Yes, except it has almost no cut on a finishing pad.

Black pad?

Are you still breaking down the abrasives?

Are the Meguiar's Soft Buff 2.0 finishing pads (http://www.autogeek.net/meguiars-finishing-pad.html) "pure finishing pads"? Is it acceptable to use Menzerna PO85rd with this pad?

I thought that jeweling was done with a rotary. Z28ImpalaSS said he has a PC. Just wondering.....

I use a black pad with my PC for jeweling; I initially had too hard of a time fully breaking down 85rd with a blue CCS pad which didn't seem well suited to higher speeds on the PC. The black pad still has very little bite, but makes working the polish completely much easier while producing identical results.

The Menzerna 085rd would be O.K. to use on what I am assuming is relatively soft 29 year old paint? What color pad would you recommend also.

It will be fine to use, I prefer the blue pad with the pc or rotary when finish polishing.
