Favorite Foam Pads For Rotary?

[DieselMDX]

Recently purchased a Hitachi rotary and been using it here and there. I precently have the 6" edge wave pads but I am having a problem with them. I used a normal 6.5 CCS pad the other day and had no problem with skipping. Which pads should I invest in for my rotary?



Poll to follow......

Edge 2k 6" and 8", use the wave ones if you feel like it.

I like the LC CCS pads best on the rotary. (green, yellow and white)

Same here..I like the CCS alot better than the Edge pads..I have the edge and they seem to be very absorbent ..The CCS pads seem to hold the polish on the pad surface and get a better work time..

I use my 6.5 and 5 inch CCS pads on the rotary ..they make short work of polishing..

I like my Lake Country flat 6.5 inch pads I havent tried any other pads really.

Edge 6" only at this point, just ordered some of their wool and 8" pads.

So is everyone using their 5 - 6.5 in. pads from a PC for your rotary?
I can't seem to find rotary pads < 7.5 in.

Any pad that works on a PC works on a rotary and visa versa

The Propel P2 Green is still the best all-purpose pad I've used on a rotary.. Not prone to skipping at all, cuts well and almost always finishes out LSP ready. Anthony sells it under the Optimum label now.

I agree, I always use the green with 106ff or ZPC to finish up real nice after wool or foam compunding use.
