Thanks for that information. If one were using the red compound, where would it go in that progression?

Which three polishes do you use? The polishes are by hand?

I have found that after 400 grease less I can use a sisal wheel and grey compound to get those scratches out.
I gather that the sisal wheel is the most aggressive wheel. I'm inferring that you vary combinations of wheel type and compound type to get fine shades of difference in aggressiveness. Is that correct?

What wheels do you use at the lower grits?

After the grey/black and sisal wheel, what wheels do you use for the green, white, and blue compounds?

Does your choice of wheel in that progression vary by condition of the razor?

I hope all these specific questions aren't annoying. I've got a lot to learn. I know what you mean about learning as you go. The more information I get before I start, the fewer bad mistakes I'll make while learning as I go.
