In 10 years of using the PC I've only had one pad fail and Meg's replaced it immediately.
I'm sure several others here will tell you that they have similar results from LC and as I said I believe you can't go wrong with either's pads. | |

Wich ones are your PADs from Meguiars?
I'm from Spain, so I have to look for them in eBay or in a UK store that sells to Europe.
Any comment from LC for using with PC? Which PADs model?
Thanks.  | |

The yellow doent't cut so much, and the blue one tends to deform while the process of polish. Maybe this deform is caused by the different dimensions of the plate/PADs. My plate is 5", and Propel PADs are 7". I prefer smaller PADs. I saw 6.5" LC PADs, maybe this dimension is better for my PADs. Or maybe, I've to buy a bigger plate...
Do you have experience with Propel, Meguiars, LC... PADs? Can you tell me your experiences?  | |

I can buy Meguiars PADs from eBay in seriousperformanceltd. In Spain they are very dificult to find...
The point is to buy the ones wich are considerated the best because I must pay a big shipping.
Thanks !! | |

I've also used the orange and green Propel2 pads, the Meguiars 8006 and 9006 pads, the LC white polishing pads, orange LC VC pad, 4" gray and orange LC pads, and blue/green Propel Turbo 4" pads.
My personal preference is the Propel line, for 7" pads and 4" pads. The Propel2s are growing on me too.
The Meg's pads had a tendency to hold onto the product too well when I tried to wash them out. And the LC VC orange pad...well I just straight out dislike that pad. VC is not my thing.

My god, then, for your comments, it will be very difficult to find a better PAD for using by PC that the 7" Propel...
Maybe the LC D.A. PADs... or LC Constant Pressure PADs...Anybody has tried them?
Thanks again !! | |
