Hey Geeks. I am ordering some Meg's 105 & 205. I have just been using some OTC rubbing compound and polishing compound with my PC and a CCS orange pad to remove minor imperfections in the paint. Any advice to using the 105 & 205 and what would be the best pad to pair up with them? I should be ok with my PC, right? Thanks
Feed back please

PC just fine:dblthumb2: +1 this is what i currently use also. But it depends on your paint is you need more of a cut then use Yellow pad if your paint is "ok" then go with Orange.

The best product/pad combo can only be determined by a test spot. Every situation is different and you need to determine the least aggressive method required to achieve the results you desire.
