First things first...
Imo: To determine the tools, pads,
liquids, etc. To use for paint correction,
certain steps/processes should be taken.
So...
After washing the vehicle,
have you performed:
•iron particles decontamination (ex: Ironx)
•"the baggie test"
•claying (per: "the baggie test" results)
•diagnosed the "paint's condition",
via swirl finder-lighting

along with the bag test
The promblem with those blocks,there not bendable they have been in the market along time nothing new.And there kind of rough on the paint and you may get one or two uses out of it,stick with clay.I love how people refresh a existing product and call it there own.on a corvette especially the rear that block will be impossible to use on some parts of the corvette.

Re: help decide swirl/cut and polish for Z06
What you guys never seen swirls before??
Sometimes I think I'm over thinking this whole paint thing.
I'm mostly looking for a 20/20 shine.

Paint is pretty hammered a bit,for a 20/20 shine meguairs 205 on a microfiber cutting disk.Then a paint sealant of your choice.Depending on your skill set hd speed being that it's a all in one deal,you may level out some scratches and make a big improvement in one shot with no lsp to do.That paint needs a two step but it sounds like you want mimium effort.so go with the hd speed.

when you have 25 years of hands on experience pics will be fine to diagnose a plan of action.

What exact Menzerna products do you speak of?
I understand the swirl remover and finish glaze of the Wolfgang.
I'll take your advice and get one of these 2 products
