Rotary pad suggestions?

Looking to get some new pads for my rotary, but I haven't been following up on all the new and best pads these days. I've been using a 6.25" LC backing plate with 7.5" LC VC pads so far. What are some other pads that are some of your top picks that I could use on my 6.25" backing plate?

I've used some LC as well as Edge 2000 pads. I've been using the Edge pads lately, because I think the adapter is so cool.

7.5" is alittle bit big for the rotary. Try get the 6.5" with 5.x" backin plate. Go with LC CCS pads.

Re: Rotary pad suggestions?

So far it looks like I might be going with 5" plate + LC CCS 6.5" pads.

Re: Rotary pad suggestions?

i have the 5.xx flexible backing plate with the 7.5 CCS pads..seems to be a great combo. I would use anything else to tell you the truth!

Re: Rotary pad suggestions?

6.5 inch pads are great. I've had the best luck finishing with supersoft pads and fine polishes like FP2
