It's a common oversight.
Seriously though, those hex logic pads are made by buff and shine. The foam compositions are the same.
The only reason I like the hex design, is because of reduced heat and surface tension. It's not even enough of a difference to be a "deal breaker" though.

I've used B&S flat pads for the last 5 years and have never had the Velcro separate, pad collapse in the center from heat or any shredding. Great pads!!

Re: Pads any good?
I've never used the HF pads on automotive paint, but I have used them to clean glass or polish my lawnmower. From the little I've used them, I don't think they're very durable.
I see them as something to use one things I can't really screw up and where my nice pads don't need to go.

When I started d/a polishing, I just started out with two each cutting and polishing. Those four pads have survived a LOT of torture since 2013. Obviously today I have dozens on reserve, and take four with me on details. They are extremely durable.
I did have four pads delaminate, but that was from CG, when they tried to cut corners, or ran out of the b&s made pads... If he gets the pafs from AG, he can rest assured that he gets genuine b&s pads every time.

That's an awesome idea.
