Default Question for Dave.....

I used some 1000 grit (finest I could get) paper to level out the touch up paint on some stone chips. I used a DA with Meguires #205 and an orange pad to buff out the sand paper marks. It really didn't work very well. There is still a fine haze. I got some Meguires #105 and my thinking is to go over the haze with this and then buff it out with the #205. Am I on the right track? Any thoughts on which pads I should use with the #105 and #205? Thanks in advance for your help.

You got it!...........

Use the 105 w/the orange pad (LC?), then after you have worked in the product to a fine glaze and hazing is reduced you would change pads, I prefer the LC white pad with the 205 after for the perfect results...D/A next with white pad and 205, then wax or seal.....

Have a great day!
