Default PO85RD with gray pad? how about white

Hey there I was just wondering, Ive got some PO85rd coming in next week and I was reading on AG's website and it says they prefer to use the gray pad. I was planning on using SIP with an orange LC pad and finishing with PO85rd with a LC white pad. I thought gray pads were for applying sealants, waxes and glazes and not finishing polishes??

85 with a white pad is perfect. I've finished with 85 and an orange pad already.

and the where to buy (sounds like you have yours, but just to make the thread complete):

carbon blue, you can use the white pad ccs pad or the blue ccs pad.

let me know if you need help but it can vary on the car's paint etc.
