    Im not sure if the car mops and the mops i used on my wheels are the same thing. But the mops i used on my wheels cost 4 each and the cutting compound was 2 for 2 bars of each grade. Its not a good idea to use the same mop with different grades of compound.also you need something called an arbour (sp?) which attaches the mops to your drill which was also about 4.

    I got it from a local diy shop in w. london.

    Personally i finished with pink, tried white but it didn't look right i think its meant for use on plastics.
