Black pad is best suited to apply waxes and sealants, but will also deep clean the paint and remove light swirls and light oxidation with minimal clear coat removal which is low risk for beginners. Always use a test spot and step up your pad choice until you get the results you want with 2 passes. White polishing pad, orange cutting pad and a purple wool cutting pad is my current progression. Hope this clears up any confusion, thanks for watching!
Great observation, yes It is a desired choice for waxes and sealants, however the black pad will remove fine swirls and light oxidation as well without removing a lot of clear coat accidentally. It will mainly deep clean the top surface, which can be done with an all in one protection and polish like 3d speed or a regular finishing polish of choice. If you want more correction and are okay removing more clear coat for better results, step up to a standard white polishing pad.

Nice video sir
Thank you!
Newbie here. I thought black finishing pads were for laying down glazes, waxes, and sealants. They have no cutting ability, no?
