I know this has been discussed before. Where do I find a backing plate to use my propel pc pads on a rotary?



I fugure less diameter might be a little easier to control while learning.



thx

Don't forget your smaller PC pads are going to be spinning faster , so keep that in mind when you set your speed. :buffing:

really they spin slowwer.. ar you increase the diameter you get faster alsong with the need to have more power to spin it. you have to look at it this way the middle really doesn't move one inch out if you move a set distance then move out more on the pad you have to go more distance to get the same % of movement in reation to distance.

on a PC they are more aggressive. because they moter and move them easier. On the rotary it's the opisite the larger 8-9 inch pads are the ones you have to watch out for

Sorry I don't buy this . Take for instance the Dewalt DW 849 its designed for 7" / 9" inch pads . It's going to spin a 6 inch or smaller pad diffently . Its the same thing as when you put a smaller or bigger tire on a car you get more or fewer revolutions depending on which way you go . We all know RPM stands for revolutions per mintue . A smaller pad is going to spin faster @ 1000 rpms on this particular example over a bigger pad which it was designed for.
