Calvin.S Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I have a PC with 4" Pads that I use for removing scratches. It does a great job I'm just wondering if I have the speed set correctly on the PC. Can anyone tell me what speed I should be using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Tegeler Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 the videos say setting 4 if memory recalls, I have ran mine at 5 before though. 99% of the time I go with speed 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChargerMatt Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I start at 4, move to 5 after I make my second overlap, and go over it quick again one way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calvin.S Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 Thanks for the quick response, I looked all over the sight for a couple of days before stepping up and asking the question. I thought it would be slower than the full size pads, just wanted to make sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diver88 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 using the 4" pads are my next step Dylan, it looked like even on speed 4 the pad was turning pretty fast but it's hard to tell on the video without a line on the backing plate. I'm guessing the 4" pads don't bog as easily with pressure as the 6.75" pads, and the reason for the slower speed. also it seemed you used a tiny spot of S&H but a bit more of the FMP, does that make much difference the exact amount used?
