Todd, which pad would provide better smoothness when polishing with the Flex 3401: 6.5" CCS pads or 6.5" Constant Pressure CCS pads? Would there be a difference in correction ability?
I went ahead and ordered some 6.5" Hi Gloss pads from ACC. I really want to like the 3401, and I think the hi gloss pads will noticeably help smooth things out. I also ordered some 4" hi gloss pads as well. I will be able to use the 3401 4" backing plate with those, correct? Also, why are some colors not available with the 6.5" and 4" hi gloss?
I can`t help it. These are my favorite pads:
They are 4" pads from CG and a 3" plate fits perfect into them. I love the plate gets countersunk into the pad. I wish they made 5.5" pads like this.
#2 would be the LC Cool Wave Pads I WON here. Todd sent me a whole box of like twenty some pads. Please note, they are getting used frequently!!!
The hi-gloss pads have 3.75 inch pad mount, which should line up great with the FLEX, IIRC. I will double check next time I am in the office.
The Hi-Gloss Pads pads are made by Lake Country. When you combine two foams together (the instant rebound foam with the pad material) you have to have a strong bond between the foams, so that this point is as strong, if not stronger then the foams themselves. Only pad materials that could be bonded to the constant pressure foam were selected.
Rotary cut: purple foamed wool
DA Cut: Meg`s MF, need to try BnS MF
DA Polish: Dodo Fin Pads black
All I need is my rotary, 8" twisted wool, and some BC2 baby!!!
Favorite polishign pad.....LC tangerine. Just a good all around pad that works great on the majority of the cars I do.
Hey Todd, for DA use, why do you prefer the hydro crimson for finishing over the LC black pad?
