You'd have to be putting some serious pressure on the Edge pad at an angle to even attempt to break the plastic plate.

I assumed it happened, undetected, when removing it or replacing it, while flipping it over.

All I can say is there is about one issue per month that I'm seeing with the adapters here. I can only imagine how many backing plates delaminate in a month though! Same for the velcro on the pads. I had a plate come apart back when I first started detailing and the results cost me about 400.00. I've had one EDGE adapter problem and it did NO damage to the car. I use my adapters daily and I'm hard on them. I think that the PC is rough on them..........as well as my arms! I've never seen a problem with one on a rotary or Cyclo.

Lets not make a mountain out of a mole hill here with this.

Well that makes 4 on this forum, but GUYS--my mini-rant was about having to return something like that to a manufacturer, even though they know there are some issues. If you will look at how the thread developed, it was EDGE, not me, that ramped things up and challenged me with questions.

Lets let this die.
