I have a number of the Lake Country Hybrid Power Finish foam pads. I just realized they were made particularly for forced rotation Flex polishers. Is it OK to instead use these with my Porter Cable 7424x? How about a GG6”? Hopefully this would not be an issue.

Anyone ever used these hybrid power finish pads?

Yes, I use them all the time. They are the first pads I grab when using my Flex 3401.

They were actually made specifically for the Flex 3401 (forced rotation/oscillation).

I've never tried them on a PC or GG6. They may work on the GG6 somewhat since it has more power than the PC but you will get better pad rotation using thin pads with your GG6 and PC.

If you're using the black finishing pads on the GG6 or PC, they would probably be okay for spreading waxes but not for much correction.
