PorterCable speeds

[nubuilder]

What speeds do you guys use for the various pads? (green, orange, white, black)

I wrote down what was said in the demo video, but I can't remember what they were and can't find my sheet.

Anyways, I'm hoping to detail the ZR2 before snowfall (want to get some wax on it before the salt hits) and would like some input for the speeds for all the pads.

I put the product on the pad in a stippled "X"

Put the PC to 1-2 then touch the pad down in 3 spots then start the machine with it in contact with the surface.

Spread product around, then turn the machine up to 5 (while in contact with the surface and moving it around) use for a few passes then turn up to 6 and use until product flashes

If you are using Adam's Polishes the recommended speed is usually on the label. In a few minutes I'll get on the computer and give you a link to the sheets.
