Thoughts?
If your car has light scratches then go with the less aggressive solution first. If you think about it, polishing/compounding is removing thin layers of clear coat. If you remove more than you really have to, then you are lessening the life of your clear coat. I suggest going with Megs M205 with a LC white pad.
