Default wool or foam pads?

Which do you prefer for buffing,polishing.This would be mainly for nitro lacquer.I've always used wool with rubbing compound after color sanding.Foam is now the latest thing to use but I have no luck at all using them.I have a set of 3 different grades from Meguiers and hate 'em.They seem to soak up the liquid and leave the dry grit that streaks the paint.Is there a trick to using foam pads?This is on a dark maroon car.I also can't get rid of the swirls left by the buffer.
