doesn't really matter what soap you use i usually use car wash and make sure its soapy and really mixed in so its kinda bubbly what the soap really does is just make a lubricant for the wet sand paper so you don't have to dip as much and its easier but any soap will do but do not let it dry on the car make sure you wipe it off once your done with the designated spot hope this he;[s

i work at j and m automotive,we use these same steps every day next time i have a oxi painted car ill have to get my self recored and what not,i usally just use a 1500 on deep scratchs to cut them down,use microfinish rubbing compound **Do all your cutting work with a wool pad,best way is to globb alot on a problem area make a few pass's and then keep checking how low the scratch is( im sure someone has seen some burnt paint,if i get my digi ill snap some pictures of burnt paint some kid always fux's up some time),after i cut it down lowest possible i usally use a waffle cutting pad(yellow) and pass over it lightly then the most important process is to wipe down,less chances of swirl marks, once thats done you apply some 3m foam pad glaze(gray/black foam pad) (http://terrys.net/3M%20COMPOUNDS/05996PER.jpg),turn up the rpm to about 2,900rpm or about 3,000 and apply little bead's and spread the polish around on the area..wash afterward's and use some 3m imperial hand glaze (best filler in my opion) http://media.photobucket.com/image/i.../Super8162.jpg and then use some calenit paste wax(holds its finish) http://www.collinite.com/images/Marque.JPG
