What setting are you using with the 3401 when you are using compound, polish, sealer, wax?

What setting are you using with the 3401 when you are using compound, polish, sealer, wax?

Too many variables for a "stock" answer but I'll gives some settings that have worked for me.

5.5" Yellow with Menz Intensive Polish: 3 to 3.5
5.5" or 6.5" White pad with Menz Intensive Polish: 3 to 4
5.5" or 6.5" White pad with Menz Final Polish: 4 to 4.5
5.5" or 6.5" Red or black pad with Wolgang Paintwork Polish Enhancer: 5.5
6.5" Gold pad and sealants: 2.25 to 2.75

My speeds are general slower than what others have posted BUT the humidty levels here are very low - using products at higher speeds seems to dries them out too quickly (no idea why), especially the polishes - they dry before breaking down and flashing.

(Right now it is now over 100F in my garage and humidity is below 10%.)

Search the posts as there is a fair amount of info on the forum.

When trying to remove defects is use 5-6 all day. Finishing could be anywhere from 3-6, depends on what products I'm using, as well as the hardness of the clearcoat.
