Time for some new pads

[Mooser]

So it`s time to buy some new pads. My most current ones are the old wavy convoluted style 6" pads (5" backing plate) I`ve got an offshore 15mm machine and a PC that both use 5.5" or 6" pads and it`s time to get some new pads.
I`ve got lots of 4" pads that I use most of the time on the Cyclo and with the PC for more spot work, most of them are flat with a few CCS and a few convoluted.
I can easily get
LC flat and CCS pads, B&S regular all about the same price up here of $10-$11 per pad
LC HD Pads (about $7 more per pad)
LC ThinPro (about the same price as flat or CCS)
B&S low profile (for about $6 more)
GG Boss (about $5 more)
Oh, could probably get CG (hexlogic?) if I tried

Oh, and primarily I use M101 and UC followed by all kinds of different polishes but lets say M205, UP, Adams, HDPolish.... etc

So let the randomness begin. What pads would you get (hobby use) for use mainly on a 15mm throw buffer

Buff & Shine Uro-Tec Foam Pads is what I use on my Das 6 pro plus 15mm long throw buffer. I watch for them to go on sale, or buy them with a % off sale when I need pads.

OK so it doesn`t look like I can get those up here.
Think I`ll try the LC ThinPro, now... 4 new orange, 5 new white, 4 new black, 4 blue, here we go again...

Good luck with the new pads, let us know how they work out for you.

so these are good to but i would get a few more orange or white over the blue personally

[Mooser]

LOL
Those were just random numbers I put down, certainly wouldn`t need more that maybe 2 blues and blacks these days, honestly 4 orange isn`t too bad for the few cars I look after, probably 4 whites.
I`ve also got a bunch of 4" pads for the Cyclo which I use for sealants/waxes and 3"-4" cutting / compound pads I use for spot work with the PC
But hey, can never have too many polishes, waxes, APC or pads now can we

Meg`s flat pads are nice. I should buy more unless those Uro Tecs are better. anyone test this? I only have one set of Meg`s flat.

Uro-Tech`s are much better and B&S Uro-cell are better yet. I love the pads design and the firmness of the pads. But as for buff & shine`s latest release Uro-cell pads (which are shaped to look exactly like the Uro-tech pads but the system itself and the pad colors are identical to lake country hydro tech`s) though have been released for several month now, Autopia/Autogeek haven`t started carrying the new line of pads. I got my hands on some awhile back and they have the cut of hydro-tech with the durability of buff and shine

B&S does not recommend using Uro-CELL pads with long throw machines.

The combination of that prepolymer foam, combined with Buff an Shine`s druability will be a big winner.

On a PC, I keep going back to green, blue, and red Buff and Shine pads. I sometimes use them on my Duetto, but not often.

Hex Logic used to be made by Buff and Shine.
