Which company make good wool rotary pad?

Hi,

Well this will be my 2nd day of using roatry...pc of cake.
I have a makita 9227, I tested out the wool pad today that it came with it. I gotta say "WOW" this wool cut thru swirls like there's no tomorrow........ ....But, here's the crap I dont like...It shed(falls out) soo much wools, it make this poor black 1991 Acura Integra look like a freaking Pekingness dog. So, which brand or company of wool pad that dont shed much? or at all

Lake County Mfg
Levelling Pad (Wool):
Are made from ¾-inch 100% natural lambs wool (do not use synthetic wool) are usually used to level a paint film surface with an abrasive machine polish (compound) or to apply a polish to large areas
Wool pads used wet or dry have the greatest cutting ability and they also produce the most paint surface `compounding haze'

Anthony Orosco posted this in a recent thread, "Lake Country has a very nice wool pad out right now that has little to no shedding."

I'm looking forward to seeing some reviews on these new pads, BTW, here is the thread where I found this info:

Yes, in my limited rotary experience wool has more cut than foam but produces less heat.
