Talked to CMA via email and they said that they would replace the pads, so I boxed them up and sending them out. I think I will invest in a 5" backing before I use them again, though.
When I ordered the pads their site said
FBP-6DA - Use this 6 inch Flexible, Urethane Backing Plate with discs and pads measuring 6 to 7.5 inches* in diameter. This plate works perfectly with our standard, 6 inch, Hi-gloss, Constant Pressure Pads
so thats what I got, didnt know the velcro backing was only 5.5 inches on a 6" pad.
So, they are replacing them, and maybe the ones I get will have velcro to the edges, and I wont have to get another backing plate.
They were quick to respond to my emails, and are fixing the problem. You got to like vendors that stand behind their product, and make it right after the sale.
