Adams Microfiber and 2 step question .

Going to be using the Adams 2 step with MF tomorrow . Will be my first time using the MF pads , my question is what speed on my PC do I use fro each step ? Is it different from foam pads ?

If they're like other MF pads, which they probably are. I'd use speed 4, at absolute most and keep your working time down you can do speed 5 at little pressure. But 4 will work best and there is no reason to go to 6.

They don't require as much pressure as foam pads in my opinion. Let the fibers and compound/polish do the cutting so with that in mind. When you see the fibers starting to get matted down after 1-3 panels it's time to clean them with a brush and fluff them back up. Clean them in a garbage can so the dust doesn't get flung back in the air and back on your car and if you have an air compressor you can use it after brushing them out to fluff the pads back up.

Example:
Pad matted down


Pad fluffed up
