So confused

[Jonje]

Hello all I am thinking about getting a g100 but have no idea what pads I need and does it come with the backing plate?
can anyone help me with this and explain about the pads and what products are used with each pad? Do I need bonnets and if so what pad do they go over?

Have you read this yet?

There is a list of most of the things you'll want and need to get started.

It actually does list which products with which pads and which pad for the bonnets.



Products Used
Quik Clay System
G-100a
1 each W-7006 SOFTBUFF™ Cutting Pad (For use with the the Gold Class Bonnets) <--
2 each W-8006 Soft Buff® Foam Polishing Pads (For use applying cleaner/polishes) <--
1 each W-9006 SOFTBUFF™ Finishing Pad (For use applying NXT Tech Wax) <--
#83 Dual Action Cleaner Polish
#80 Speed Glaze
Meguiar's NXT Generation Tech Wax
Supreme Shine Microfiber
X4003 Gold Class Clear Coat Safe Microfiber Bonnets 2-Pack

The reason it doesn't list any compounds and the pads to use for them is because Meguiar's doesn't recommend using any of our compounds with the dual action polisher.

The most aggressive we recommend you get is the M83 Dual Action Cleaner Polish with our W-8006 Polishing pad.

If the above combination does not remove the defects, then it's time to take it to a pro who knows how to use a rotary buffer or it's time to learn how to use one yourself.

OK, the bonnets are only for removing product not applying.
