LC has a gold pad they recommend for sealants. I haven't tried it out myself yet.

Not too long ago, I remember gray being the softest LC foam pad for LSP.

Apparently there is another variant, in gold, that is even softer than red.

IMO once you get to the functionally nonabrasive point, any additional softness is insignificant. But some soft-enough pads work better with some LSPs than others (owing to other characteristics of the foam), and that gold pad is supposed to be very good for use with thin liquid LSPs.

I tried the Gold pad - that's the only one I'll use now for LSP's - puts the Red pad to shame.

You don't have a problem with the velcro on the back coming off? Do you use hot water to wash them in? Any residual affects on clothes washing?
