    If you had to choose between...

    LC Flat Pads or LC CCS pads, which would you choose?

    Depends on what you are using. If it is a da, I would go with a flat pad. With a rotary either one works fine for me.

    Good point. For a DA in my case. I'm gonna order some pads soon, hence the question.

    Really, what's the logic behind that?

    I believe ASPHALT ROCKET is considering #1 below.

    #1: Flat pad = more contact - DA could use the help more then a rotary could.

    #2: CCS = less contact (less friction) (less heat) - Rotary could use the help of not overheating the paint

    That is the reasoning that I am aware of

    As CEE DOG said it is all about the contact with a da. As far as the rotary about heat with a flat pad, heat is not a concern for me when using the rotary, some feel it is, so there is a pad for everyones liking or reasoning.

    I would vote CCS as you tend to use a tad less product. I have used both and either are easy to learn on.
