PC Pad Usage

[stiffdogg06]

I am just wondering what kind of pads everyone is using with their PORTER CABLE 7424/7336.



I currently use the 6.5" LC Flat Foam Pads. I hear using a smaller pad will add more cut. I was thinking of getting the 6" Edge2000 System. Would that .5" make that big of a difference in cut?



Also, how's the durability of the EDGE pads? My LC Foam ones are holding up wonderfully.



What bout the EDGE Wave?



Thanks guys!:woot2:

there are a few threads on the benefits of smaller pads with the PC, here's one... http://autopia.org/forum/detailing-...-5-5-low-profile-pads.html?highlight=5.5+pads

stifdogg06- While I haven't used any of the current 5.5" pads, I did use 5" pads on the PC back in the day. IMO they didn't make for much of a difference; the way to get greatly increaded performance is to use 4" pads. Those are a *lot* smaller and you'll notice the difference (in fact, you have to be a little careful with them).
