Eric- I sent you a PM asking if LC would ever make the variable contact pads in smaller sizes? I love the VC concept and especially the durability but sometimes 7.5" pads are a little large...

So what the lady at LC told me today wasnt right? Maybe she got the CCS 4" pads mixed up with the old style pads? Because she told me 4" pads will be discontinued. I also talked to Chemical Guys this morning and they said they dont even sell CCS 4" pads. The 4" pads that I ordered from them were actually 3.5". On the same day I placed an order with AG for a yellow CCS 4" pad and that measures a true 4". Can someone clear this up for me, because everyone is saying something different.

Heres what Ive heard...

LC- 4" pads are being discontinued. Thats probably why I got 3.5" CCS pads from ##.

Chemical Guys- dont sell CCS in 4" pads, they dont even have it in the catalog. They also told me the blue pad isnt actually CCS, its something different. I forget what he called it.

AG- does and will continue to sell 4" pads in CCS.

Are the non-CCS pads still available in 6.5?

LC isnt discontinuing the 4" CCS pads. But for whatever reason when you order the 4" pads from ## they will send you 3.5" pads, but on their site it says "CCS 4 Inch Foam Pads." So that makes no sense. Their site sucks if you ask me.
