So I would not recomend using a 8" wool pad for cutting with this machine. I used it with 5-6" foamed wool pad and Menzerna PO85RD3.02 or Menzerna PG for cutting, Then straight to a final polishing pad and PO85RE5.
Thanks Porta! I do have one of the LC purple foamed wool pads, but I like still use the edge setup and wool pads 80% of the time. Looks like I will pass for now.
