Stock (basic) White UDM pad?

Stock White UDM pad what is it? Some sites are selling the basic UDM package with 6.5" white polishing pad and here it's the 6.0". I notice that the UDM site sells the White stock pad for $9.95 so can it be total junk like the stock PC pad?

Hello!
3 days and no one knows what's the WHITE stock pad that Car Detailing Supplies, Car Wax, Car Polishers, Car Care Products provides with the UDM is. Is it any good or is it junk like the standard PC stock pad?

It is a basic white foam polishing pad. Why do you think it is "junk"?

It's not junk like the pad that comes with the PC. You can actually use this one.

UDM Replacement Polishing Pad.

Replacement for standard foam polishing pad that comes with the Ultimate Detailing Machine Model 1000 car polisher.

For use with low abrasive "swirl remover" and "pre-wax cleaner" polish formulas.

Let me attestify to Lynn's words. While it is not top tier pad (to quote DavidB it is of "cheap and cheerful kind") it definitely is not like the pad that comes with the PC, it is quite OK. Actually I used it few weekends ago when I ran out of my other pads and it did just fine.

My UDM came with the 6 inch pad, the 6.5 inch pad looks much better. The 6 inch one seems cheaper qualitywise compared to LC CCS pads, the back of its edges stick out a tiny bit from the pad a bit and the backing doesn't seem as durable. Why do some UDM's come "standard" with different pads?

I used the white pad that comes with the UDM and it works great for me

That's the one I got with my new UDM this week too, and I tried it out tonight with Meguiar's #83 and I like it! I like the UDM's white pad better than the Lake Country pad, probably because the smaller size makes it easier to maneuver. I wish I could find a place that sells these pads up here in Canada! Does anyone know of one?
