Default Need help with old ProperAutocare.com pads

I have a bunch of polishing pads here for my P-C RA polisher, and I can't seem to get them in the proper order of "cut" or aggressiveness. These were all in a box when I bought my polisher used on CL, and since properautocare.com is now out of business, I can't look up the numbers to make sure I'm using them properly. They are all unused, still in the wrappers. Any ideas? Can someone help?

LC-64-9255-130MM Orange
LC-64-9655-130MM White
LC-64-9755-130MM Black
LC-64-4455-130MM Gold-ish/Yellow
HGCP-65R Red

These will be used with Zaino products, Z-5 w/ZFX and Z-AOI.

Thank you!

If these are the Lake Country Flat Pads, they will be ranked as follows:

Yellow Cutting Pad
Orange Light Cutting Pad
White Polishing Pad
Black Finishing Pad
Crimson Ultra Fine Finishing Pad (HT pad)

I should have mentioned that the gold/yellow pad (#4455) also says "Flat Ultra Finishing Pad" on the wrapper. Would that mean it would be least aggressive? It's not quite as soft as the red one.

Then yes, it must be the gold and not yellow... The gold is a very fine jeweling pad.
