    Where in the world did you come across this price per pad? Meg`s MF pads are NEVER that expensive per pad nor normally sold at that price per one pad, nor can I find where Meg`s only sells one MF pad at a time......

    My bad, I looked again and didn’t see it was for a pair. Though while everybody seems to agree they work well, it seems to be common for them to not last.

    ACC has GG 3" MF pads. They are in the Griots brand section under Boss system:

    I have been using these, and they are some of my favorites ! Recently picked up some 2" & 5" to go with them.

    2quikta : I have a Swirlkiller too, it`s the mini. Love that machine ! I use it with 1" & 2" BPs. (just picked up LC extentions will haveta try)

    Re: Long throw MF pads recommendations

    I was looking at the 15/mini bundle but decided to spend the extra money on new pads since my GG3 works fine. I’d love to convert it to a small pad machine, but I keep telling myself one of these days I’m going to get a ibrid. One of these days....

    Heh heh, I`m envious....my v1.0 GG 3" is a paperweight for all practical purposes. The 3" pneumatic one I got from them is OK, but...
