Lake Country CCS or Hydro-Tech?

[teamerickson]

I'm looking to get some 5.5 pads. I currently use 6.5 and 4" CCS pads. Should I get 5 or 6 CCS pads in various colors, or get a couple of the Hydro-Tech tangerine?

I would go for the CCS since people are having issues with the HT. At least til it is figured out if the pads are the issue.

I have used the hydro-tech pads and have liked them so far. My favorite ones are the cobra cross grove pads. The ccs pads are nice, the org pad feels a little stiff to me

I have both pads. The Hydro-Tech pads work great but they do not last very long and fall apart pretty quick. So I would have to say go with the CCS pads.

Are you using a Rotary or a DA? If a Rotary then get the CCS. If a DA then look at a third option as well. Look at the original Lake Country flat pads. There in there. look harder... They are just like the ccs but are flat. I bought LC: CCS, H-T, and Flat. Will start using them next week so I don't have an opinion of my own yet. I can't wait!!!! I have read great reviews on the HT as far as performance goes.

I had some super tiny black specs on my HT when I got them but I think they were just dusty and had some type of fabric strands or something.... Don't know but I will wash them before using.

A PCxp is a DA (Dual Action). From what I have been told you want to go with the flat pads HT or classic.
The reason being is you want continuous contact for faster correction when using a DA. When using a Rotary it heats the paint up so fast you may want to go with the ccs instead

Cee Dog you got it right. If you can find a 5.5 inch flat pad that is the best way to go with a da.

There is a place to get them, but not here. I think AG should carry all pads in different sizes. Not just the 6.5's in the flat LC.

Thanks for the info. :)

I say AG call LC , get some made and we will product test them.:props:

I know where to get them but that is a no-no.:dblthumb2:

I'm going to have to say Hydro Tech. It's nice not to have 30 different pad colors and at least two of each pad.

You are still going to need more than just these two pads.
