Quoted from yellowghost:Bought the bullet and bought some compounds. Mine say white before green. Should I still use "white diamond "last?

Usually white is polish finishing.
However, white 'diamond' is for fast cutting on hard metals.
"Made with fine abrasive powder that produces a final satin finish on chrome, stainless steel, carbon steel, brass, and aluminum. Also use to remove rust, scale and carbon deposits on metal surfaces."
Quoted from yellowghost:I noticed that using white after green seemed to go hazy again. So now I stop at green. This is piece that I've done so far. Do not own a " saturn flap" so the machine mark on the steel are still there.

What kind of mop do you have for green?
Quoted from yellowghost:Not using a mop. Its a wheel thing that inserts into a corded drill. About 2 1/2" in diameter. About a inch thick. Should I use a different wheel for every color? The wheel just looks black now. The outlane trim did not turn out too good. I guess the scratches were too deep for the compounds[quoted image]
I use following sequence:
1. Saturn wheels to remove scratches, ball marks. 120, 240, 320 grits.
2. Sisal Wheel.
3. Colour Stitch Buffing Wheel.
3. 'G' Loose Fold Buffing Wheel.
One wheel, one compound only, don't mix.

Yes, black for sisal, green for color stitch, white for last one.
That pic is about brand new wheels.
