But eshine doesn't sell that pad though, if you look on their site it only shows the 4", 6.5 and 7.5 LC pads, but it doesn't have any 6" pads like the one that comes with the UDM.

How about the "Scratchbuster" at Ultimate Detailing Machine DAS Foam Pads

I got the scratch buster pad with the UDM. I'm glad I got it, it works really nice and there's a small safe zone for the backing plate. I didn't know that there's two different pads that come with the UDM.

Is the white pad that comes with the UDM (no CCS style indents) the same foam as LC white pads?

Is this a good pad to use to with PGP, or should I use my UDM Green pad instead?

They are both polishing pads but they do not appear the same foam type. I have only used the CCS type with my UDM but I do have the white pad that came with my UDM.

The stock UDM pad (white 6.5" pad) is a common REGICELL 60 foam. This pad is good for light polishing and pre-wax cleaning tasks. It does not have enough density or cut to bbe useful as a swirl or defect removal pad. It can also be used with cleaner waxes, such as Klasse AIO or Meguiar's ColorX.

Replacements are available from Foam Polishing Pads

The ScratchBuster pad is a pre-polymer foam with a density and structure that is nearly the same as the Swisstex orange foam. It has a slightly large pore, allowing it to work very well with light cut compounds and agressive swirl removers.

The pad is cut to a smaller diameter (5.75") to make it work even faster when used at higher speeds with the UDM.

When used with a quality polish to remove defects, this pad leaves very little (if any) hazing.
