Which combo do you think would have more cut? Sonax Perfect Finish on a Rupes Green Pad, or Sonax Cut & Finish on a Rupes Yellow Pad? Everything else being equal.
Anyone else, feel free to chime in.

Not sure off hand but
Cut and Finish has a cut of 5 and polishes out to a gloss of 5
Perfect Finish has cut of 4 and finishes out at a gloss of 6
So going by what SONAX says about these two products I'd have to say the Perfect Finish would have more cut.
Most people don't know this but Perfect Finish is actually formulated for and intended for use with a rotary buffer. I use it with orbitals and it seems to work just fine.
Paint hardness or softness is actually a HUGE variable anytime you're abrading the surface.

I'm sure you meant Cut & Finish has more cut. Was just curious if you felt the slight difference in cut rating would overcome the difference in pad aggressiveness between Rupes Green and yellow. I have Cutmax and Perfect Finish and love using them both with the 3401 and long throw DA's. If I needed a bit more bite than PF/Rupes yellow, I was trying to decide to go with Rupes Green pads or picking up Cut & Finish and still use Rupes Yellow pads. I decided to go with Cut & Finish.Quote:

Have you tried the Rupes wool pads?Quote:

With the 3401, the medium wool pads feel great and perform well. Don't like the feel of the coarse wool, however.Quote:
