For those of you using the buffing wheels; would you recomend the Menzerna coumpounds from Stew Mac, if so what grits?

Thanks

I use the Medium and then the fine to finish it off. The yave worked well for me. I believe there is one grit that is even finer. But I haven't tried it.

I use the Stew-Mac compounds starting with med. then fine, and sometimes swirl remover to finish. I'm using a random-orbital sander with a buffing pad attached until I get my pedestal buffer. But I do get a surprisingly nice finish this way.
