Welcome to the forum. Greaseless compounds i have found are best used with spiral sewn wheels. Do not get to heavy a hand with them because they cut fast. I'd also recommend after using the finest greaseless to go over it lightly with a 400 grit sand paper to help level out the sanding from the greaseless, but thats just me. Than i go to a black emory with a sisal, than right to a white rouge on a loose or canton flannel. Someone i bet can chime in with there favorite setup but from what i've seen, everyone has a different method. Your best best is to pickup maybe the finest greaseless, a few of each type of buffs, spiral sewn, sisal, loose, and canton flannel and a black, brown and white compound. This will give you a nice basic all purpose kit that you can use to experiement and see what you like the best. Good luck and feel free to ask any other questions.
