Pads for AIO around the house?!

[thedarksyde]

I am going to use AIO around the house as it seems to be the cleaner of choice for a lot of people, and I would like to try it out, if it works as they all claim, I am gonna wanna use it often on random things, but I was also thinking I do not wanna waste my good pads...

so are some less than good pads that might cost a bit less that people would suggest for my PC that I could buy for things like my shower and counters, and floors? Thanks

Use the stock PC white pad. About all it is good for.

Yes but I hear it will destroy pretty quickly and then I will still need pads...

use the pad it came with they are worthless for any other project but be careful they can break apart and crap flies all over the place. wear goggles

The cheapest way to go is to buy a 3.5” backing plate and some 4” pads. The 4” pad may even work out better for home use since you’ll be able to get into tighter places. TOL has some inexpensive Cyclo 4” pads (about $3) and CMA sells a 3.5” backing plate and some much higher quality LC 4” pads:

I have both types of pads and the LC’s from CMA are a much higher quality, but the Cyclo pads from TOL may be good enough and they also have a finish pad in that series.

For regular size PC pads it’s hard to beat the price and quality at Excel Detail:

I have used the white pad that came with the PC and it did a great job in the shower and on tile. It held together. Should work well.
