General Pad Question

I need to replace my current pads as they are wearing out. I have a PC7424, with the backing plate with the velcro attatchment.

I would like a full set of pads with different levels of courseness. What brand/set does everyone recommend?

Re: General Pad Question

What size backing plate do you have the 5" or 6"?

Re: General Pad Question

well if you are planning on getting a full set i recommend the LC pads as well. 5.5 inches seems to be just the right size and not too big. Of course depending on what kind of vehicle or vehicles you are working on and the hardness of the Clear Coat, we could see what pads will do just the right job

Re: General Pad Question

I do believe I have the 5" backing plate, and I'm working on my 2009 Dodge Challenger, and my girls 2004 Dodge Ram.
