The white waffle has less cut than the hybrid orange according to Eric at Lake Country. However, with the waffle design, these pad should polish very smoothly with the Flex 3401.
Didn't see the thread closed yet so hopefully I'm not too late.
When I first got my Meguiars G110v2 I was using some Megs 7" soft buff pads. They weren't horrible per say but It definitely took away from the correction ability of the polisher I was using.
It seemed to em that there was just too much pad spinning and it was very easy to stop the pad. As we all know if the pad isn't spinning its not correcting swirls and other defects.
Enter the LC 5.5" Hydro-Tech pads. First impressions were pure amazement. I couldn't have been happier. The thin profile coupled with the smaller diameter made correction so much faster. I actually had to try very hard to stop the pad from spinning using much more pressure than is necessary for correcting paint. I read that the durability isn't the greatest but in my case this doesn't seem to be true. I've done over 6 cars now using those pads and they look as good as the day I bought them.
In fact I liked them so much when I ordered my Flex 3401 form AG I coupled it with the LC HT Cyan,Tangerine, and Crimson pads.
As of right now I think LC has perfected the foam pad, and I couldn't be any happier.
Took some time selecting foam pads. Worried over my first try at polishing my car. The pads and DA made the work fool proof. Would like have the set to try on my very neglected PKup
