Thinpro, B&S or Rupes

[RaysWay]

Today on The Auto Detailing Podcast I heard Richard Umbrell, president of Buff and Shine, say that there`s less stress on the thinner pads on long-throw machines. That seems counterintuitive to me, but that`s what he said and I`m sure he knows what he`s talking about.

On the podcast he also talks about how much more stress a long-throw machine puts on a foam pad and how they`ve had to create better foam to deal with it (specifically, the elongation of the cells).

That is interesting, but you`re right....Richard Umbrell is a bonafide pad guru.
