    Hello !! :wavey

    I`m from Spain, and here is very difficult to find good PADs. I heard very good comment from LC PADs and from Meguiars PADs. I want this PADs dor polish with Porter Cable 7336sp. I can find in eBay this PADs:

    The ones from Meguiars:

    http://cgi.ebay.es/Meguiars-Soft-Buf...QQcmdZViewItem

    This ones from LC:

    http://cgi.ebay.es/Lake-Country-6-5-...QQcmdZViewItem

    And this ones from other web:

    http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acata...-57polish.html

    I don`t know what kind of PAD is better for Porter Cable use.

    Could you help me telling me what is your choice?

    I have The Edge Propel 7" PADs but I don`t like them, and I want to change.

    In LC web, I can`t find the Constant Pressure PADs anymore, but I read that they are good for PC use. Now, in the web appear this PADs:

    Any help will be very appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    They are both excellenrt sources for your pads. P personally use Meguiar`s pads as

    1. they are well made and come with the Megs satisfaction guarantee.

    2. I order lets of Meg`s products anyway so I just add them to my orders.



    In 10 years of using the PC I`ve only had one pad fail and Meg`s replaced it immediately.



    I`m sure several others here will tell you that they have similar results from LC and as I said I believe you can`t go wrong with either`s pads.

    Wich ones are your PADs from Meguiars?

    I`m from Spain, so I have to look for them in eBay or in a UK store that sells to Europe.

    Any comment from LC for using with PC? Which PADs model?

    Thanks. :xyxthumbs

    Edge pads and Propel pads are two different lines. Which one do you have?

    The green one is the best for me. The yellow doent`t cut so much, and the blue one tends to deform while the process of polish. Maybe this deform is caused by the different dimensions of the plate/PADs. My plate is 5", and Propel PADs are 7". I prefer smaller PADs. I saw 6.5" LC PADs, maybe this dimension is better for my PADs. Or maybe, I`ve to buy a bigger plate...

    Do you have experience with Propel, Meguiars, LC... PADs? Can you tell me your experiences?

    :thx

    And could you compare them whith LC, Propel...?

    I can buy Meguiars PADs from eBay in seriousperformanceltd. In Spain they are very dificult to find...

    The point is to buy the ones wich are considerated the best because I must pay a big shipping.

    Thanks !!

    I have used the whole line of Propels with the exception of the gray. I`ve also used the orange and green Propel2 pads, the Meguiars 8006 and 9006 pads, the LC white polishing pads, orange LC VC pad, 4" gray and orange LC pads, and blue/green Propel Turbo 4" pads.



    My personal preference is the Propel line, for 7" pads and 4" pads. The Propel2s are growing on me too.

    The Meg`s pads had a tendency to hold onto the product too well when I tried to wash them out. And the LC VC orange pad...well I just straight out dislike that pad. VC is not my thing.

    My god, then, for your comments, it will be very difficult to find a better PAD for using by PC that the 7" Propel...

    Maybe the LC D.A. PADs... or LC Constant Pressure PADs...Anybody has tried them?

    Thanks again !!

    Yeah, I`m come to the conclusion that the Propels are the best way to go, not just due to the quality of the pads themselves, but also because of the price and customer service that you get from Patrick.

    I`m not sure what you mean by Propel Advance? Can you provide a link to what you`re referring to?
