Has Anyone Tried These Pads From CMA?

Has anyone tried these new funky looking pads from CMA? I need to purchase some foam pads and just thought I'd check to see if anyone had any input on how well these work on a DA polisher.

CMA describes them the following way:



"While these pads were designed for the professional detailer and body shop, they offer a number of advantages to the enthusiast. These pads are very user friendly. They are easy to control, even for first time users, and virtually eliminate pad squeak and skip. They're great for spot buffing or entire vehicle buffing.



The difference between these pads and our standard Variable Contact Foam Pads gets a little technical so bear with me. Our standard pads are made from thermally reticulated polyurethane foam with a 99% open cell structure. This allows our standard pads to operate at a much lower temperature for paint safety. These Finger Pads are made from a pre-polymer foam with a 50% open cell structure. This particular combination is so unique it is covered by four US patents and is sold throughout Europe by the German, Wurth conglomerate."
 
I purchased one of the white "fingure" pads a couple of weeks ago. It's a good pad, however not at high speeds. Lots of splattered klasse on the windsheild. What I do like is the curved pads that CMA sells those and the orange pad very nice:xyxthumbs
 
I too did not get splatter and yes they do say to apply product directly to the surface being detailed. One major problem I've had with mine is that it will fling off of the PC when I start to lighten pressure at higher speeds!!! Has anyone else had this problem? Anything you're doing differently with this pad than the others?
