What pads for the DeWALT Rotary Buffer?
What pads for the DeWALT Rotary Buffer?
I get e-mails, PM's and FB messages all the time with questions that are better asked and then answered on this forum for a host of reason. One reason is more eyeballs see the questions and answers so more people are helped versus one set of eyeballs in an e-mail, PM or FB message.

Hey Mike Phillips the master of paint,
I just placed a order for a dewalt and was curious if pad sizes effect performance and control ability and what pad size do you recommend for a rotary.

Personally I would have purchased the Flex PE14 instead of the DeWALT rotary buffer but that's just me.
Regardless, when learning to use a rotary buffer it's easier when using smaller pads versus larger pads. A foam cushion backing plate also helps too.
Here's an article I wrote to share some pads I like with the Flex PE14 but you can use them with the DeWALT too.

I agree Mike. I made the same mistake of buying the 849x because it was cheaper. I wish I would have just picked up the PE14 from the get go.
I also prefer to use the Hybrid pads as well with the PE14.

Excellent reading in the link you provided. Just have one question is Lake Country the only one that uses electrified wool for pads?

Thanks for the reply Mike! Do you have to use a Lake Country backing plate or the black and white one will do?

You can use any backing plate that fits and the hooks attach to the loop material. I prefer backing plates that offer a foam cushion inter core.
