Anyone have any experience with this product? I’m wondering if I’ll need 4 or 6 pads for a normal sized sedan.
I blow them out and hit them with a brush after each section but this is a new combo and I don’t want to run the pads to long.

I would recommend getting 6 pads for a normal sized sedan. I have used it with success a couple times. Have not used it in awhile.
The pads are a bit stiff but soften up as they are used. I would also recommend washing them in warm water when cleaning out the pads. They close up under cold water.
Take a look at this thread if you have not done so already. Todd covers how to prime the pad and use it.

I always say...
More pads are better
Not just because we sell them, I'm not that shallow. but because you always get better results when you're able to switch to a clean, dry pad often.

Loved how UHS worked on the 31 Auburn...
Cut and finished out better than the blue/blue.
See on page four, post 38, when I gave up on the blue/blue and switched over to the UHS. Perfection!

Do they need a break in spray? I don’t see one on the rupes products and have always sprayed new pads.
