What are the best pads to use with an orbital buffer? Like terry cloth, wool,? I'm new to orbital buffers so i'm not sure what I should be looking to get?

It depends on what you are trying to accomplish. I am not sure what kind of orbital buffer you are using . But most of them are not effective in removing swirls. But if your buffer does have a backing plate with velcro, then you can buy foam pad to use with it. Check at Meguiars online store , there are cutting pad, polishing pad and finishing pad for different purposes. Search though this website and you'll find a lot of information here.
Good luck. -
Well seeing that i'm using an orbital buffer they would be for apply DC#1 cleaner, polishing, and waxing. Anything tougher a will end up doing by hand. Unless they have rougher pads for orbitals.Comment

Please Help!!! Noobie
Are you talking about this orbital! I am a noobie and was wondering how to use this. Do I put the polish on by hand then buff the residue off? Could someone tell me step by step how to use this?
I plan on washing my car, then claying, using Scratch X, polishing and waxing. Thanks
Can I apply the polish on the orbital and then work it into the car or is that wrong?Comment
