    Cyclo Pads rubbing against each other.

    Hi, I'm a new Cyclo user. I'm currently using the orange foam pads and the hook & loop pad holders that came with the package. My question is if it is normal that the foam pads rub against each other leaving a trail of shredded foam on my paintwork? I've done all I can to center both adapter and foam pads and they still rub. Thank you in advance for any advice.

    Are the pads centered exactly? What pads are you using?

    Your pads or the holders (or both) are not centered.

    Goathead & RTexasF, I'm using the hook&loop orange foam pads and the slip on velcro pad adapters that came with the Cyclo. Did my best to center them already. Anyway, I'll go back and check again. I was thinking maybe safer to go with the oem Cyclo pads and the quick attach adapter?

    Ok, I tried running my Cyclo without the foam pads. After removing and reinstalling the rubber velcro adapters, they still eventually rubbed against each other. Could my machine be defective?
