Want to try some new pads

[Ebg18t]

I have been using the Lake County Flat foam pads for years with my Flex 3401. I like the flats, but just want to mix it up.

It's time to replace a lot of pads so what pads should I look at trying next? I am looking for polishing & cutting pads.

Welcoming ideas.

for a 3401 id almost exclusively use the LC hybrid pads with the LC BP system. awesome combo. and rarely i use buff n shine 5.5 pads

I started using the newer Megs thin foam pads and they are very nice. Durable,clean up nice and work well on the Flex. LC Hybrids are nice also

Vobro - can you post a link to the Meg's pads you like?
Ucdie - I was considering the LC Hybrids.

Without a doubt the Hybrid pad lineup. The flat face design works exceptionally well with Menzerna's DAT based products.

I have been using the larger 6.5" pads for most of my work and follow up in the smaller areas with the GG3 equipped with the Hydrotech pads.

I know that these are meant for the Rupes machines, but I absolutely love these HD orbital pads on my Flex:

I also love the Meguiar`s thin discs and their MF cutting and finishing pads.

Many people don`t recommend using the Megs MF pads on the Flex; but I personally have had no issue with using them on my 3401.

I am now using the LC Hybrid pads exclusively.

Are the LC ThinPro just a remake of the Hybrid? If so, do people like the new ThinPro over the existing Hybrid?

Lake Country has a new line of Hybrid pads coming out, that includes a center hole, and adds the grey cutting pad. They also found that a lot of users enjoy the thicker pads on the 3401.

I liked Hydrotech pads when I had the 3401.

B&S Low Profile pads work excellent with the 3401.
