Menzerna Final Polish PO85RD with a (LC) White pad or use a (LC) Black or Gold pad for finessing

When I used 85rd, I almost always used it with lc black pads for jeweling purpose.

I've used it with both White and Black pads with great results so you can't go wrong either way. Simply depends how many stages you plan on doing and what you're looking for as an end result.

I usually use LC blue flats as last step.

Black/Dark Gray LC pad for me. I only use it for final polishing since it has minimal cut.

Did correction on a BBP Fit last summer and used the Makita with an LC Green and Menz SIP to level and then 85RD on a black with the random orbital to finish down. That paint was a royal bitch to get right because it would mar if you looked at it wrong and swirl if you used anything more than a feather touch.
