LC purple foamed wool pad?

**WRAPT C5Z06** · 01-14-2010, 03:34 PM

If I used this with a Flex 3401, how does the cutting ability compare to a LC orange and yellow pad?

Doesn't work as well as wool does but it does leave less holograms behind and trails than natural wool does and is easier to care for as well

It will tackle anything you throw at it as well

more cut than orange, sheds a bit of lint so wash it 2 times before using it. It also seems that you either have to clean the pad more frequently or switch to a new one. eg-I can do a whole car with 3 foam pads but probably 5-6 PFW pads.

What the heck I asked this question a few days ago and I didn't get near the responses? http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/...amed-wool.html

Not true, I barely get any holograms if any using a natural wool pad.

Because no one likes you-lol.

Honestly it depends on the tool, if you are using a rotary you should use a wool pad if you need anything stronger than an orange pad. Now if it is a da I would just stick with a foam pad.

Not nice!

I have had to use an yellow pad many times, what is up with that? J/K!

I have use both Purple Wool and the Yellow Cutting Pad. The Purple Wool cuts more and stronger then the Yellow Cutting Pad. but to use the 6.5" PFW and the 6.5" Yellow Cutting Pad you need to change the backing plate. Otherwise buy a smaller PFW so you can use 1 backing plate for both.
