Re: JUst got my SUPA BEAst! Pad recommendations please?
There a thread on the forum where he discusses it. Do a search.
IIRC he prefers the 6.5" Lake Country Hybrid Force.
Orange for cutting and white for polishing. Maybe a black or red for sealant application if you do that by machine.
If using the 5" plate I believe he prefers Buff and Shine Uro-Tec pads. (I use these and second it on my CBEAST and all free spinning tools).

I’m not Mike but I highly suggest Lake Country 6.5 inch Force hybrid pads. The orange, white and black will tackle just about any jobs. I also like the foamed wool pads for really tough jobs.
Lake Country Hybrid Power Finish Ultra Performance Pad System, buffing pads, foam pads, polishing pads

For pads...
The pads I use the most for correction/cutting are the Lake Country 6.5" Force Hybrid in Orange and White
For polishing I've switched over to RUPES 7" foam pads. I really like the taper of the RUPES pads.
I show pictures of pads in all my car detailing write-ups.

Thanks for the update on backing plate. I also have to order the larger backing plate. Currently own 4 Flex cordless (works wonders for the boat detailing jobs with no electric power around, unless I bring a generator or other means of juice). I also use these cordless for all my vehicles

Im on the 3401 and the hot ticket is the Hybrid pads.
I would venture to say that the new Hybrid Force pads will be the hot ticket on the new Supa Beast.
