Question on optimum compound

What speed are you supposed use with a PC? Instructions on the bottle don't give any good clues, just talks about using a wool buffing pad at 1000-1400 rpms. I'm using an orange pad.

Start it out at 4 to spread the product around then go up to 6 to give it a chance to break down. I'd be careful with a wool pad, it can be pretty aggressive. Unless you're doing a lot of correction (not what a PC is really good at), you're better off with foam pads.
