    Flex 3 inch polisher

    I recently purchased a Flex 3 inch polisher, what pads do you recommend with this machine ?

    Re: Flex 3 inch polisher

    The Flex 3" pads are quite pricey. You basically have 4 choices then: the Rupe's 3" pads, GG Boss 3" pads, the B&S 3" Euro-Cell and Euro-Tech pads, LC Thinpro 3" pads to choose from. Adam's may have some pads now too since they have a 12mm 3" polisher now.

    I personally have a mix of pads, but like using the GG BOSS and B&S pads the most.

    If you have the Flex 3" then get the Flex pads as they would very well with the polisher. Be careful with the small one inch pads as its very easy to put a hologram or get the pad on edge.
