    I have the book...have all your books in fact. I didn't know if these were out at the time or had changed your mind. Thanks Mike.

    Re: 5.5" SUPER THIN FOAM PAD OPTIONS for your Dual Action Polisher

    I just found the first picture in this thread shared on our D101 Facebook page as a Tip - use thin pads because they rotate better...

    Thought I would check on the actual thread and found these two posts since I last visited this thread...

    Thanks Mike.
    In context, these pads were not available when I wrote my FLEX how-to book and if they were I would NOT have recommended any of them for use with the FLEX 3401 or any gear driven orbital tool.

    Sure thin pads will work on gear-driven orbitals but there's not a "need" to use them, so might as well use thicker pads and the buffing experience is smoother. Don't we all want smooth, low vibration buffing?

    Thanks for bumping this thread.

    When I write an article I do my best to make the information both accurate and timeless. That is to say, the information in this article is just as accurate today as it was when I wrote it.

    Just because an article or thread is old does not make the information less valuable, in fact it's relative. And that's why bumping old threads is perfectly okay as it helps new people that have not seen the thread/article and thus my need the info.
