    If you do a search you`ll find tons of infromation about them . Alot of the DCer`s use them , I`m one . I use both the PC and rotary pads and can`t say enough good things about them . Yes the system isn`t cheap , is it worth it . Well that depends and I can`t answer that for you . If your going to be outfitting a PC with the Edge 2000 pads you could get by with only 1 blue and 1 green pad . You could custom order a green and yellow combo pad or just order 1 yellow pad .

    Lets go shopping at PAC .

    Edge 2000 pads

    1 The Edge DA 2000 Blue Polishing Pad 17.95
    1 The Edge 2000 DA Quick-Connect Adaptor 17.95
    1 The Edge 2000 DA Green Light Cutting Pad 17.95
    1 The Edge 2000 DA Yellow Medium Cutting Pad 17.95
    Subtotal: 71.80

    ( you could subtract 1 pad if you get the combo pad ) total $53.85

    I think combo pads cost a few dollars more .



    Advanced pads

    1 - 6 Inch Flexible Backing Plate for Dual Action Polishers 18.95
    1- 7 1/2 Inch Advanced C.P. White Polishing Pad 10.95
    1- 7 1/2 Inch, Advanced C.P. Yellow Compounding Pad 10.95
    1 7 1/2 Inch, Advanced, C.P. Orange Power Pad 15.95
    Subtotal: 56.80

    Something to remember the Edge pads are double , so your getting 2 pads which means if you bought the suggested 3 pads you would have 6 pads and if you bought the suggested Advanced pads you would have 3 pads . I don`t know if the above pads I picked out from Advanced are the right pads ( I never used them ) it was a ramdom pick . You need to decide what pads are right for you. If you buy from PAC or Autogeek you can get a 10% discount , so thats something to consider , plus Autogeek has good deals on kits . Good luck
    Good things are not cheap, and cheap things are seldom good !

    I used them too and they are great! For $17.95 you get 2 pads, so it is cheaper than the other pads.

    Re: Edge 2000 pads

    I have them and love them also. Bought the whole kit from Dwayne. It includes an adapter, white (finishing), blue (polishing), green (light cut), and yellow (med. cut) pads. Love the pads, love the quick-change ability, and the fact that I have 2 sides to every pad, so when it starts to get loaded up.. flip! new pad.

    anyone use this with a pc? Does it have a much different feel than an ordinary backing plate?

    Re: Edge 2000 pads

    Using them with a PC is the way they are made. All that feedback is from use on a PC. The feel is nearly the same as using a regular pad and backing plate. The difference is that the Edge 2000 pads are thicker and getting under spoilers is a little tricker. However, at least you don`t have to worry about the backing plate gouging the paint anymore. They are nice pads and a pretty smart design.

    I have a polishing and finish Edge 200 that has never been used. Still in the sealed package. Will sell them for $10 each if interested.

    one good way to understand these pads is to watch the video on our website. Also just to clarify we make this system for both the Porter Cable DA machines and also the rotary machines. www.edgepads.com
