Edge pads, wow they are hard

Just got a used PC and the edge pad system, wow I did not realize how hard the pads would be, Got me a little worried about using them on my baby, but I am going to have a go on my Honda Prelude first. Still a little iffy though

Re: Edge pads, wow they are hard

The blue and white foam aren't hard at all. Which ones are you checking? The orange foam (any mfg) is very dense and hard.

Re: Edge pads, wow they are hard

Well you are testing their cutting pads. Which have to be somewhat firm. I think you are fine.

The red edge 2k wave foam pads tie with the blue 3m waffle foam for the softest pads I've ever felt.

Re: Edge pads, wow they are hard

What car is "the baby"? The paint may be rock hard and benefit from the yellow edge pads.
