This is the first polishing I’ve done aside from hand-rubbing paint. I was very worried about burning or otherwise damaging the paint with high-speed wheels. Dark paint shows every swirl and defect!. As a test I decided to remove the license plate, simulate some damage, and buff there before moving to areas that will be visible.
Image 1 >> Removed the license plate and wet sanded 3 patches (L-R, 1000g 2000g 3000g)
Image 2 >> Buffed with coarsest (orange) pad using Meguiars Ultimate compound at low speed with drill (500rpm?), light pressure, for about 15 seconds. Wiped clean. 3000 grit sanding was almost completely removed. 1000 & 2000 were still visible. Even the coarsest pad left no additional marks in the surface.
Image 3 >> sanded 1000 & 2000 area again progressively to achieve uniform surface (2000 > 3000 and 1000 > 2000 > 3000)
Image 4 >> After second round of buffing with Meguiars Ultimate & Orange pad, damage was nearly invisible. Same approx time and speed as first application.
Image 5 >> Switching to Black (finest) pad. This is how I dabbed polish on area before buffing.
Image 6 >> Only the finest of scratches remain. I did learn to be VERY careful around edges as there was a slight burn of the paint at the bottom corner of the panel. I’ll probably avoid all but the lightest polishing over panel edges.
I didn’t get a great picture of the perfect final result. The last bit of polishing was done with compound on the bonnet, then a pass of compound by hand, a pass with Mothers Sealer & Glaze, and a pass of Mothers Carnuba wax to finish.
Image 7 >> The scratch in the photo higher on the bumper and some other scuffs were removed completely using one pass with compound on the black pad and a final buff with the bonnet.
Image 8 >> I cut a bit of thin foam from my scrap drawer to use under the bonnet when polishing. The wheel felt too hard by itself for delicate work.
The pads washed easily after done for the next use. Only time will tell how long they hold up but I have no reason to think I won’t get several years worth of light duty use out of the whole set. Aside from the foam fix referenced in image 8, my only complaint with the set is it would be nice for the wheels to have a hex bit attachment so I could use with my cordless impact wrench as well as my drill and switch out pads quicker. These little nits aren’t worth deducting a star for. Hope all this helps someone else who is thinking about the set.
UPDATE: Numbered the images because the order they imported in was all over the place.

Surprisingly inexpensive for quality, these worked well for a recent 2 step paint correction and wax job I did, the car looked amazing.

I purchased this to clean and polish my head lights, they look like new. The only thing to say is the heads come off the screw easy, if you spin the drill and release surface contact the adapter spins right off.

I needed to fix damage to a motorcycle tank and this product was amazing. I was a paint Quality engineering tech for a motorcycle company and needed to do some paint repairs to our personal motorcycle. After sanding, this product helped me buff the paint back to pristine condition. The options for pads was perfect for the process. The pads are durable and the quality is top notch. I was even able to buff a scratch out of my car too! Great price point for this product!

Price is great, pads are good except for the backing coming off which holds the pad in place. Hopefully seller reaches out and send me some replacements.
