Default Porter Cable & Accessories

Justin,

I'm getting ready to order a Porter Cable and just wondering what else I need. I currently have the OD light polish, glaze, and hyper sealant, but am thinking I need something with a little more cutting power since I still have noticeable swirls. Also, what pads should be used with each product and at what speed. I've been doing some reading on autopia, but it's not making too much sense right now. I plan on buying the package deal with just the pads, but not sure what else I need. Thanks for the help.

I would get some Optimum Compound for the heavier swirls.

You want to use the orange pad with the Optimum Compound, speed 6 is where you are going to get the best paint correction. Then I would use the OD Light Polish with the white polishing pad on speed 6. You want to use the Wet Glaze and Hyper Shine with the gray finishing pad, for these you never want to go over speed 4.
