What products to buy for buffing and polishing by hand?

[Joe3334]

Hi all

I'm writing this during my break from wet sanding, it's looking good so far, can anyone tell me what products (brand & name) I'll need to buff and polish my clearcoat by hand? Will be heading to SCA tomorrow to pick up the goods.

I'll need:
Cutting compound?
Polishing compound?
Scratch and swirl remover?
Some sort of foam pad?

Cheers, Joe

What is this micromesh stuff? I've seen it get thrown around the forum but I don't know what it is.

Really good abrasive that you use for wet sanding.
