    Uber pads?

    Anyone used the Uber brand polishing pads? Good or bad results with the 6.5 inch size.

    I've used a butt load of 5.5's and have never been disappointed. I'm sure the 6.5's will preform the same

    I just recently tried them out and will now be switching all my LC pads to Uber as my LC pads get worn out.

    The Uber's will wear out to. They are not a end all pad, but they do seem to use a superior glue then most others do. IDK, I think they are all actually made at some pad factory somewhere and each distributor has their named stamped on them or something. Its a conspiracy I tell you

    I agree eventually they will wear out. But the backing was always the first thing to wear out after a few uses with LC Pads. Hell my last order of LC Pads a few months ago, about 4 of the pads were not perfectly rounded, so at speed they were always off balance. Just seems the Uber pads are more well built at a slightly cheaper price. Plus from my expierence with them, I honestly feel they cut better and work on the paint better than the LC Pads.

    Re: Uber pads?

    I still like the LC Hydrotech or CCS pads over the Ubers. I got 4 with my purchase of the FLEX and feel the range pads are just too hard and the green pads are just too soft! They just don't conform and feel as nice as my LC's. I still use them occasionaly, just not as often as my LC's
