    Microfiber Cutting/ Finishing Discs

    I use Megs Microfiber System quite frequently. It really does a great job. When shopping around for the best price I have noticed other products out there. Optimum has one pad for 11.99 (autogeek). Chemical Guys has pads in their clearance section for 5.99 that look exactly like the Optimum. Has anybody used these? Megs work wonders but are pricey. Thanks.

    I didn't care for the optimum pads. I used car pro, which i think are buff and shine on my flex this weekend, they work great.

    Meguiar's are the best.

    LC MF pads are good quality, but, they're finicky with certain polishes. You want to use a "dry" polish with these pads(M101, M100, M105). On certain paints, they will underachieve if you use them with "wet" polishes.

    Nanoskin also offers their pads now that seem to have a smaller MF length. I have seen one review in the forum with good results. Can anyone compare to megs?

    The Rupes MF pads Re good but I still feel the Meg's pads are better. The Rupes pads work very well with the machines as you would expect.
