    I picked up this kit from Detailers Domain

    1 Porter Cable
    1 - 5 inch Backing Plate
    2 - 5.5 inch Uber Flat Pad Orange (med polish)
    2 - 5.5 inch Uber Flat Pad Green (polish)
    2 - 5.5 inch Uber Flat Pad Blue (final polish)
    2 - 5.5 inch Uber Flat Pad Black (wax/sealant/glaze)

    and these Adam's products,

    Adam's Swirl and Haze
    Adam's Fine Machine Polish
    Adam's Machine Superwax

    I watched the Adam's videos and I want to know which of the pads I bought compare to the Adam's Orange, White, and Gray pads.

    Is it like this?

    5.5 inch Uber Flat Pad Orange (med polish) = Adam's Orange (Adam's Swirl and Haze)

    5.5 inch Uber Flat Pad Blue (final polish) = Adam's White (Adam's Fine Machine Polish)

    5.5 inch Uber Flat Pad Black (wax/sealant/glaze) = Adam's Grey (Adam's Machine Superwax)


    I think I have it right but I want to be sure, thanks in advance.

    look good but I would

    5.5 inch Uber Flat Pad Blue (final polish) = Adam's White (Adam's Fine Machine Polish)

    Green pad

    So green before the blue then, and with which product?

    Orange - swirl and haze
    Green - Fine machine polish
    Blue - Fine machine polish
    Black - Machine superwax

    ?

    the steps are printed on the back of the pads.

    Orange should say med pol
    green should say polish
    blue glaze etc
    black wax

    Ok, so since none of the Adam's 3-step is a glaze do I just skip the blue pad then?

    you can but you have 2 polish steps why would you do a 3rd step

    swirl and haze
    then fine machine polish

    I got it now I read your first reply wrong.

    So this is it

    Uber Orange = Adam's Orange - use with swirl and haze
    Uber Green = Adam's White - use with fine machine polish
    Uber Black = Adam's Grey - use with superwax


    I just placed my order with you today for the PC and lots of Adam's stuff and I very excited to get started! Thanks much Phil!
