    With the 3401, I'd definitely use the Rotary LC MF pad.

    Thanks, kinda thought that. With the forced rotation producing a little more heat than other DA's figured it would last longer with the heat dissapating with the thicker foam core. Thanks again, you have some great posts also.

    As you mentioned, the 3401 doesn't produce near the heat of a rotary. I think the key here is the extra cushion of the rotary pads will provide a much smoother polishing experience with forced orbital action of the 3401. JMO.

    The Pad Man recommends the DA pads:

    I've used both; the DA pads work better.
