Edge rotary pad sizes?

Doesnt Edge make like a 6.5" pad for rotary users, do you have to get the 8" to get the system?

Thanks

Jim

The 6" to PC will fit if.

They make 6" pads but they market them as for the PC.

All the sizes fit the same adapter so it's all good.

FYI ... I use the 6" pads on the rotary and they work great.

Re: Edge rotary pad sizes?

Once I tried the Edge 8" on the Makita - I was hooked, just did a van and I'm glad I had those bigger pads.

Hmmm, so the adapter never touches the paint even with added pressure? This seems like a good system for the rotary???

Thanks

Jim

Ryan, never tried the wave pads - I have the flat ones. Did you not like the wave?

Re: Edge rotary pad sizes?

Man, I just bought Edge 6" and Edge/Presta wool 8" and cannot be happier! They're great, I love them more than the LC pads I have.

Actually, the wave is great. I intend on getting the 6" wave pads as well.

Re: Edge rotary pad sizes?

I exclusively use the edge2k system on my rotary. I use their 7 1/4" wools, 8" flat pads, 6" flat pads and 4" flat pads. Never tried the wave pads, not really interested.

Where did you buy the 4" pads from?
