Just was curious how many pads you guys have on hand. I currently have 3 polishing and 2 finishing on hand, but ordered 4 more polishing and 8 more finishing pads last night. All in 6.5" diameter. I will try this setup and see if I have enough or might order a few more.

Re: Number of pads
All depends what you are working on. For one car, or at least one car at a time, that is plenty. For a business, probably need more.2017 Subaru WRX Premium - WR Blue -

Re: Number of pads
You can wax, or pure polish a car with one pad per product.
But for cleaning, it depends. For heavy defect removal, you may want to switch to clean pads 1/2 or 1/3, etc of the way through.
For just a light cleaning, one would still be ok, though you may like a fresh pad anyway.2017 Subaru WRX Premium - WR BlueComment

Re: Number of pads
Usually you can apply wax/sealant with 1-2 pads. Using a clean pad for each layer.
For defect removal, I try to switch pads at least every 1/4 of the vehicle. Sometimes if the defects are especially bad. More often then that.quality creates its own demandComment
