Hey all,

I was looking at upgrading to a Flex L3403 Rotary. It comes with a 6" backing plate. What pads do you guys recommend I get. Brand, color, etc. I use mostly Menzerna products if it makes any difference.

Thanks a million!

I dont recommend using large pads (6.5+) for new rotary users. They are harder to control. I like the CCS white, blue, red, and gray pads. The CCS orange pad is too stiff for me. For cutting I prefer the 3M UK yellow pad. If I need anything stronger then I switch to wool pads.
