    Proper setting on my PC 7424XP

    Can anyone suggest the method for determining the proper setting when using a PC 7424XP for applying polish, sealant and glaze?

    Thanks

    3-4 spend setting for glaz sealants and wax. Polishing to remove paint defects 4-6 since you have the PC

    Evan 100% correct. i use a 3.5-4 when applying Glaze or sealant. Some Sealants and glazes are more watery so might wanna start off with a slower speed.

    Polishing needs more speed. I typically do 5.5-6 on my PC

    Ok I was wondering if I was using too high of a setting. I had mine cranked up to 6 since any lower than that I was having problems with the pad not rotating all the time.
