Pads for general AIO use

[AZpolisher15]

I'd like to get 6 dedicated 5.5" pads for quick random McKee's 360 AIO applications that I will do in the next few weeks.

LC thin pro orange or white?
LC CCS white or green?
Griots BOSS yellow or orange?
LC flats?

What would you recommend I choose for the M37 360 on a variety of vehicles (GG6)?

This will just be for spring clean up on daily drivers for friends and fam. Trying to keep it simple and not aiming for perfection on every one.

I did the same - dedicated pads for 360 and chose LC ThinPro's orange. They have a little more bite than Griot's orange pads and durable as all getup. I used to use LC CCS white but didn't have as much correcting ability as I wanted.

I use the Griots BOSS Orange with HD Speed and get great results!https://scontent.fsnc1-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-0/c33.0.200.200/p200x200/17342925_1050287851738984_3981461047845854714_n.jp g?oh=33803b217b12bdd55fb0f55bdce08478&oe=598E67FA

Not sure how much correction you need, but LC flats have worked great for me w/ HD Speed.

Whites, and the orange on a few areas.

Buff and shine 5.5 inch white heavy polishing pads are my favorite pad for AIO applications with a GG6. They are extremely dense european prepolymer foam and are the most durable pads I've ever use. Another great pad is the orange uro-cell.

I use either black or white pads from Lake Country.

I use both LC whites or oranges depending on my test spots on the particular paint i'm working. Sometimes i get away with white and sometimes I get better results with orange. You said "a variety of vehicles" so I would recommend some versatility.

Maybe get a 6 pack of 3 whites and 3 oranges and go LC thin Pro's. You can try both and then get more of the colors you heavily favor.

The thin pros work well from LC. The buff and shine are standard thickness for the DA but would work fine too. Some people have a brand preference. Heck some like the hex pads too.

Microfiber pads would work as well but you have a little more risk of DA haze on some paint especially if you used a cutting disc only.

Thanks! Is there risk of DA haze/holograms with the Thin Pro orange on some paints? I like the idea of good durability, considering my intended use. The vehicles I'll be working on are primarily Toyota/Nissan, but also others.

Thanks! I've got some Speed to use, in addition to the 360. I'd rather have a little less cut and not risk hazing.

Thanks! Same question I asked Steve-- you see any hazing with the B&S white? The durability claim is very attractive to me.

Flats?

In my experience I have never encountered DA haze with my thin pro's and an AIO product (even on one neighbor's black Camry and another neighbor's grey Nissan Maxima). I've used both HD Speed and McKee's 360 with both orange and white Thin Pro's on both.

I have the GG 5.5" orange pads with HD speed.

No. Never had any haze with the orange thinpro and 360 or Griot's sealant all in one
