    pads

    Buff and shine pads vs hydro tech which is more durable and why am I getting so much static with WG compounds and sealants?

    Re: pads

    Interesting. I got crazy static on my rear bumper after GG compound then WG sealant. I thought it was the whole process. But then I compounded my front bumper and didn't seal, and no static. I wonder if it was the WG sealant.

    Don't have exp with those particular pads.

    In general, closed cell pads like Lake Country Hydrotech, and Buff and Shine Euro-Cell pads exhibit wear much faster than their open cell counterparts.

    Standard Lake Country flats/CCS, Buff and Shine Grip Pads, and Meguiar's discs are plenty durable.

    I definitely prefer open cell pads and not just because of better durability.
