I'm looking to get some 5.5 pads. I currently use 6.5 and 4" CCS pads. Should I get 5 or 6 CCS pads in various colors, or get a couple of the Hydro-Tech tangerine?

I have used the hydro-tech pads and have liked them so far. My favorite ones are the cobra cross grove pads. The ccs pads are nice, the org pad feels a little stiff to me

To achieve excellence, excellence cannot be rushed. Technique is just as important as the product used.
While my approach takes more time, the results are far superior.

I have both pads. The Hydro-Tech pads work great but they do not last very long and fall apart pretty quick. So I would have to say go with the CCS pads.
Are you using a Rotary or a DA? If a Rotary then get the CCS. If a DA then look at a third option as well. Look at the original Lake Country flat pads. There in there. look harder... They are just like the ccs but are flat. I bought LC: CCS, H-T, and Flat. Will start using them next week so I don't have an opinion of my own yet. I can't wait!!!! I have read great reviews on the HT as far as performance goes.
I had some super tiny black specs on my HT when I got them but I think they were just dusty and had some type of fabric strands or something.... Don't know but I will wash them before using.

Cobra in 5.5? Couldn't find them on the AG website.
A PCxp is a DA (Dual Action). From what I have been told you want to go with the flat pads HT or classic.
The reason being is you want continuous contact for faster correction when using a DA. When using a Rotary it heats the paint up so fast you may want to go with the ccs instead
