As in MSDS sheets? Yes:

meguiars.com: Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) (http://www.meguiars.com/msds/index.cfm)

Those help too, but they aren't what I was looking for. I'm looking for something telling what each product does, or an agressiveness chart.

By the way, my Dynabrade attachment came on Wednesday. Went down to the local paint store awhile ago and bought a W67DA backing plate, and 1 each of the Meguire's 6.5" pads.

I'll need more pads for sure, but not knowing how these pads cut, or how they compare to LC orange/white, I wasn't sure how many to buy just yet.

Here's a link for comparative aggressiveness of some meguiars products:

Thanks, that helps. I wonder where Meg's Ultimate Polish falls in?

There is a picture in the first link that shows you where!
"From the most to the least aggressive...

M105 Ultra-Cut Compound/M95 Speed Cut Compound = The same in abrading power
Ultimate Compound
ScratchX 2.0
M86 Solo Cut & Polish Cream
D151 Paint Reconditioning Cream
SwirlX
M205 Ultra Finishing Polish"

Uhhh...didn't see it in the link, nor do I see it in your list here. I don't think I'm blind, but perhaps I am.

Meguire's Ultimate Polish, not Ultra Finishing Polish as in M205. It is an otc product like Ultimate Compound. Same black bottle as UC, SX 2.0, and scratch X though.

Here's what I'm talking about;
Meguiars Ultimate Polish, meguiars car polish, meguiars polishes, mcguire's (http://www.autogeek.net/meguiars-ultimate-polish.html)

Ultimate Polish came out after that thread was started. Over on MOL it was stated that UP is derived from 205 but has more "trade secret polishing oils" so my guess would be it's to the right of 205 in that picture.

+1.
I've used UP by hand and it's cleaners are mildly aggressive with lots of rich polishing oils. Finish off with some good wax or sealant and Shazam!
