I'm going to machine polish my car in the next few weeks. I need some advice on pads.

I already have the cutting compound - Megs cutting polish & Megs speed glaze.

The car has ever so small swirl marks and the odd surface scratch here and there.

I'm guessing i'd need a pad for cutting, speed glaze and finial (Which i'd use Srp)

I WILL be claying the car before hand too.

Thanks

if your starting mate just buy a megs polishing pad, you'll be fine.

yeah megs do a good cutting pad and polishing/finishing pads.

Failing that, Menzerna pads are the bomb¬!

Chemical guys also do some really good pads, depends on the machine polisher you've got of course ;)
