    Hey Jim,

    I've done the same thing several times.

    A question I have is how does a pad conditions actually work and what makes it work?

    Before applying what kind of product?

    In my theory, a spray with "polymers that encapsulate dirt particles" or a high amount of lubricants and surfactants would not be ideal for corrective polishing. How much will it actually affect your outcome? I don't know... probably not at all. Pinnacle Pad Conditioner or Distilled Water for me though.
