Pick me Autogeek.net!!!

With all of this talk about 106FA or PO85rd being preferred as the best final polish or for "jeweling," where does Micro Polish fit in to mix? Isn't it the least abrasive of the bunch and shouldn't it provide the best final finish? I'm confused by Menzerna's chart.

RSURFER, Thanks for the polish and pad recommendations! Since my paint color is silver and not a dark color (which would really look great with a high-end wax), I plan on using a sealant for longer protection instead of wax. What sealant would you recommend?

I own a 2003 Silver Mercedes that has been driven only for pleasure and is still scratch-free. I see that Menzurna polish has been recommended by some of you as the best to use (I have a Porter Cable orbital buffer, but no pads yet. Need to choose and buy them, too). My question is that...
