Foam pad recommendations

[XclusiveAutoSpa]

Right now I have a 7 inch polisher (Sander/Polisher - 7 Speed Sander and Polisher) and was wondering what foam pads would you recommend I purchase. It came with a gray pad, but to me it really didn't do any justice on the car I detailed this past weekend. I'm looking for pads that will help remove scratches (moderate to deep scratches) and pads that will enhance the overall shine of the paint. I know that will depend on which products I use also (any suggestions on those too would be appreciated). Right now i'm using mostly Meguiars gold class products (compound, glaze, and wax). Thank You for any input.
