Hook & Loop Flexible back plate vs Vented?

[soapboxpreacher]

Whats better? Have no clue in this department? Want to polish to remove slight swirls. I was also told to do 5.5" vs 6.5" as I am only using my DA for my Tesla. Let me know.

what DA and pads do you currently have?

Griots no pads yet.

I'd go with vented... I'm no Mike but I'd say physics comes in here somewhere... I use a GG6 a lot and use their vented 5" plate... no issues ever...

to add above, here's a vented backing plate that's in the outlet store and it's only $9.99. could be had cheaper with all the sales going on...
