I have been using the Edge 6" DA pads and 2 of my pads gave out. I apply on average about 5-15 lbs of pressure when buffing on speed 5 or 6. I know for sure that I'm not applying too much pressure.

Prior to the pads ripping, the pad wobbles a lot when I am buffing. I inspected the pads, and found that the plastic that holds the pad had been shifted.

Maybe I'm not going around the curves of the car correctly?? I can't figure out why this keeps happening. I machine washed the pads once when I first used them, but stopped doing that long after.

I had one replaced by Aaron already, and now two more wear out.
