Default Getting right to the point in detailing with a PC..

I have the following:
porter cable 7336
zaino clay
z1 (Z-1 Show Car Polish Look)
z2 (Z-2 PRO Show Car Polish for Clear Coated Car Finishes)
3M swirl remover
z6 (Z-6 Ultra Clean Gloss Enhancer Spray)


Which pads do I use for each product?
Which step comes first besides washing and claying?

Thanks again for everyones help and yes I read the millions post of detailing.

The yellow pads have more cut and can be used with the 3M dark car swirl remover first.

The white pads have less cut and can be used with a lighter polishing material like Zaino Z-PC or Mequires #9.

A red pad has little cut and can be used with Mequires #7

You want to start only as aggressive as needed to remove the scratches and swirls that you have. Products with an aggressive cut will need a second product with less cut to polish the first products results to a higher shine.
