Has Anyone Use The New Lake Country........

[Old Pirate]

Like the title say`s, Has anyone use the Lake Country Hybrid Power Finish Ultra Performance Pad System yet? I`m about to get some of them very soon and been looking for a review of some type on these new pads from Lake Country. I have seen the one Corey wrote up about these but would like to see more of them out there.

Anyone?

Nope, sorry Angelo. They are so new I haven`t had a chance to get them and try them yet. I would love to try them out on my 3401 though. They sound promising if they are more durable than the HydroTech`s.

I have tried them, and while they are very good when they are new, it seems like they tend to hold a lot of product even after cleaning them. The last fews times even with cleaning them 2 times, they have dusted product everywhere. I am going to clean them again and give them one last shot.

While they may be good for the 3401 my thought is they may be too big for guys using the PC style DA. Maybe they will come out with a 5.5 later but I wonder why they didn`t from the begining seeing how that style polisher is more popular.

I will give the pads a thorough test, but so far, so good. The new wool is EXTREMELY nice!

Thank you everyone.

Interesting thread. I`m curious to see/hear more about these pads....

While the foam is very nice, I think the 45 degree bevel is too much of an angle. The 5.5" velcro loop is too small to use with the 3401. There`s not enough support of the whole pad, and it creates a lot of wobble when polishing(with the 3401). JMO. Never tried them on a PC.

I`m a HUGE fan of the new Hybrid Power Finish pads. My personal favorite is the orange. For as much cut as it has, the finish it provides is ridiculous. I often refer to the Hybrid Power Finish pads as "Hydro-Techs on steroids" because they build upon what the Hydro-Tech pads are known for - superior cut with a superior finish.

If you have a Flex XC3401, these pads are a perfect match. With the stock 5.5" backing plate, the pads are self centering, which makes for a perfect fit every time.

I really need to get some of these and do some testing on them then.

Nice review STIGINATOR!

Still didn`t address the PC DA situation. Seems like these were made with the Flex in mind.
