When should wool pad be used?

[Rednsxe]

Well i haven't had a chance to use my wool pad yet, I know it is a pretty aggressive cutting pad with the Wool. When should i be looking into using the wool pad? Also what would be a better product to use the cutting pad with if it comes to those circumstances DACP or 3M Rubbing Coumpound? and what speed should i have the PC on when i use such combo?

I have used the wool pad with succes

I was trying to remove dealer-swirls with a PC,yellow (megiuars)pad and 3M PIII Machine polish : that combo didn't work

what did work was when I changed the yellow pad with the wool one! (speed 5800OPM)

Each situation will be diffrent,

so,

start with the least abrasive and step up 'till you have the desired results

*I* would use the wool with rubbing compound instead of with DACP. The DACP's abrasives diminish, eventually becoming pretty mild. This, to me, conflicts with, and is somewhat nullified by, the inherantly aggressive nature of the wool pad. I use a constant-abrasive product with the wool pad, and quit as soon as I get a finish I can work further with the RC/yellow combo.
