Re: Issues with a new combo

Jake have you tried misting your pad with water first before compounding. You don't need to go over board with the water, but a few quick light mists should do it. May I make another suggestion. While I feel that Lake Country makes the best foamed pads, I truthfully think the purple foamed wool pads are just a waste of one mans thoughts. You really need to look into the tuf buf Black lambs wool pad from micro-surface.com

Re: Issues with a new combo

LOL seems like everyday new pads are hitting the market. And I usually let most of you guys do the testing for me before I run out and buy new. And I didn't actually buy this PFW pad. It just came as an extra in a kit I bought. Figured WOOT! free pad let's give it a try. But it seem the PFW fad is already on it's way out and you guys all have a whole slew of new suggestions out there. I will be watching the reviews intently and looking into all the suggestions made as I think within the month I will be placing a sizable pad order as most of mine are nearing the end of their life cycles.

Re: Issues with a new combo

I have used the PFW with the PC. As stated before, I also mist with water, and frequently use the pad spur and re mist every so often. I really like these pads; although I am also up for trying new pads like the black lambs wool pad, and others mentioned here. They will be my next try...

Re: Issues with a new combo

PFW with the PC is useless to me. I would choose the LC Orange > PFW via PC

Re: Issues with a new combo

Interesting that people are spurring the PFW pads. I use a dulled screwdriver instead as my regular spur seemed really harsh on 'em.

The little 3.5" PFW pads work well for me via PC, but IMO the larger ones need the Flex or a rotary.

Re: Issues with a new combo

I been washing my wool pads for a few years and no problems at all. Just sit them out to dry. The dryer causes the adhesive to become loose if too much heat is exposed on the backing.
