Decided to try the M205/orange combo on my '12 Infiniti G37xS, Vibrant red in color. I had my daughter bring over an 'orange' pad and it looked orange to me. :awman:
Did about 3/4 of the car with the M205/'orange' pad, cleaning it along the way and really happy with what I was seeing in the Brinkmann light (Thanks again Mike!) and went back by to see an orange pad in my bag. The orange pad in the bag made my 'orange' pad look much lighter in color, kind of like tangerine!!
From what I managed to find in the store, tangerine is a small step below a true orange and is still used for light/moderate cutting which is the combo I needed apparently as my 'hard clear' warmed up to it nicely. I did use speed 6 though.
Anyone else ever gotten these two mixed up? I think I need to mark mine with the color tonight on the Velcro side. I'll try to add a pic or two of the finished result but it really did make the small clearcoat scratches vanish.
