First DA Job is Tomorrow... Who Knows the "Real Work"?

[Mogey1]

Hey, Any tips from Guys who know "the real work" is greatly appreciated.
Workin on an MB E500 Dark Grey, minimal correction needed
It's kind of a mix, but here's what I have onhand:
Meguiars (PC7335)
Clay bar, Detailer Last Touch Spray
White, Red, Black LC Pads
Microfiber Bonnet
105 Ultra Cut Compound
205 Ultra Finishing Polish
Best in Show Wax

I was going to start with a good wash, use the Spray/Clay, White Pad/105, 205, Black Pad Wax, Remove Wax with Bonnet 45min after application. This good?

Thx!

I am not familiar with the LC pads, but just be sure to use the polishing pad for the 105/205.

Also, you will want a dry pad for under the bonnet. If one of those pads is a cutting pad, use that under the bonnet.

What size pads?

Not that it will change my opinion, but I was just curious. Sounds like you have a pretty good plan. I've used a white 4" CCS pad with 105 and I have had nice results at correction, but I've never used 205 so I can't comment but I'm sure it will finish as good or better than M80, which I use with the white pad and the finish is amazing.
