CCS Technology Orange Power Pads..

i though this was a polishing pad with a little kick, but when i got it in the mail.. it was much stiffer and textured than i expected. should i use this for cutting? or is this possible to use with a light polish and finish down right too?

I've had pretty good results with Menzerna FPII and an orange pad on black

Its suppose to have 90% of the yellows cutting abilities and finish like a polishing pad i think.

its "suppose to", what does it really do?

when a white pad just doesnt cut it, step up to your orange to tackle the scratches.

what car? what speed?

I can finish my BMW with the orange pad easily. With a PC.

The orange foam is very versatile. My favourite pad.

Maybe I don't see a difference between the CCS and the FLAT LC pads I use. I'd like to see a side by side view of working a product same amount of time, on the same machine, and in relative ambient weather, with both an CCS pad and FLAT pad and see which one actually does perform better. Just because CCS is better "technology" doesn't mean it works better.



I just bought 2 dozen of the low profile 5.5" LC orange pads from AG.net for my makita. :grinno: :help:

CCS pads work great by rotary but on a PC I'm not sure it makes much difference.

Well the only compaprison i was able to make was my yellow CCS and yellow VC pads.



With the normal VC pads and Automagic XP compound, it dried up too fast or it soaked up the compound. So I thought the XP compound was just a bad product and left it on the shelf.



CCS pads and Automagic compound, it allowed me longer working time and the correction i wanted. Took Automagic off the shelf and use it more and more.



Maybe it was the VC design, because it wasnt flat. Who knows?
