    Re: 3.5" or 4" pads for GG Polisher?

    I use the 4" LC flat pads and recently bought some Buff and Shine 4" pads, I really like the balance and configuration of the B & S 4" pads.

    The GG comes with a nice handle which will give you more control when using 3" pads.

    Since backing plates are fairly cheap I will just get the 3" and 3.5" backing plates. I hear a lot of good things about the buff and shine pads as well.

    For simplicity sake I will just buy LC flat pads as it is easy and I know what to get. They are also priced very reasonably. Trying to do this all on a budget.

    Save your money, once you use the 3.5" backing plate you'll never use the 3".

    Alrighty I will trust you! The only reason I was going for the 3.5" pads was for the small panels on my truck...but honestly I can probably get them just as well with the 4" pads.
