    Got my pads ordered, now need the rest

    Today I got my pads ordered. I ordered 2 orange, 2 white and 2 blue, along with a 3.5 inch backing plate.
    Now I need to get some polish and sealers/wax. I have a local body shop supply store and they carry the full Megs Professional line. I was thinking of getting the Megs #83 and #80. Then finishing it up with Megs #21v.2 or NXT.
    This is my first time using my PC7424. I have some swirls to remove, but the paint is not super bad.. Does this sound like a good plan for polish and sealant/wax to begin with. Its the polish part that is throwing me for a loop, as there are soo many choices.
    Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I like Menzerna polishes better. JMO

    I use merzerna polishes also, they seem to work well for me. The P106ff is what I use for slight swirls w/orange pad and I use Powergloss w/white pad works for me to.

    Your game plan seems right on target. Maybe add some Meg #82 for the car where 83 might be a lil to aggressive.

    I like #83 and #80. I don't typically use them, but I do like them when I use them. You should be good buying them.

    I would finish up with #21.
    What if the Hokey Pokey IS what it's all about???

    I used Megs DACP for along time with nice results. It will dust however..
