I've still use an old two handed buffer with 9" pads. I go back and forth from my "old fashioned" wool pads to them "new fangled" foam pads!!!!! On the Cutlass, I started with a med wool pad and 3M regular cut Perfect It II rubbing compound. Did the car once with this, then scrubbed it thoroughly with hot water and soap, then buffed it one more time with a black foam pad and the same compound using very light pressure.
