Is there a resource out there that would let me SEE what a 1200 scratch looks like in comparison to a 1500 or a 2000? I'd like to be able to match that up with what I'm seeing on my cars. I'd also like to know how many RPMs the dials settings (1-6) on the PC 7424XP represent. Then I can make some sense of what the product descriptions for polishes are telling me!
 
From the manual: (Manual found here)
vArIABLE SPEED
Adjust the speed by turning the thumbwheel (C) Fig. 2. Thumb-wheel position #1 provides the slow- est operating speed (2500 OPM) and position #6, the fastest (6800 OPM). You can change the speed while the motor is running or while it is stopped.

Some more info:

I'm sure others will give more info here, but it seems like for the most part, for correction you go with ether 5-6 and to apply sealers and waxes 3-3.5
