I do it all the time. First I use the 1000 pad and then some ruff Buff.
If more length is needed, go to a 2000 pad and ruff buff. More yet, 4000 pad with polish.
But to me, the ball works best at 1000 or 2000 with ruff buff. If you have to go higher then that for more length, maybe you should be using a different ball.
