I used my black one with FPII on a 'jeweling' pass after OC on my black BMW. Still cannot get all of the marks out. Pad worked nice and FP worked longer than I expected. Speed 6, quarter roof, 6 passes at 2-4 inches per.
Best part was the feel. No skipping or shudders, no splatter, stepped right over my sunroof seem and moved very easily. Cleaned up nice too!
Don't think I will throw away all of my current pads but when it comes replacement time I think it will be worth the upgrade. Thanks LC!

Well, since everyone is asking and I have actually used mine, I'll throw my hat in the ring with a review. I got some of each size, the 7.5 curved shape for the rotary and some 6.5" flat ones for the PC. I wish I could sound a little more excited about them, but I'm not. Don't get me wrong, they are still really good pads, but I didn't think they cut down much on the splatter with the rotary like I was expecting. I got about the same performance using the VC pads. YMMV. Maybe after I get a little more experience with them I'll find them to be better. But for now, I like the VC's just as well.
Now, I did like the flat ones on the PC, and I could definitely tell the difference in keeping the polish in the pockets a little longer. but I did notice some additional wear on the outer edges that I usually didn't get with the regular LC flat pads.
Personally I like them.... I have used them a few times now and the one thing I can DEFF. notice is control. CCS vs Flat pads I can deffinately feel a difference in control with the rotary, less skip and chatter. Ive compared CCS vs Flats back to back and thats the only advantage I can see so far. As for splatter... well... Ive been using 106FF which you dont need a lot of to complete a 3x3 section, so... I cant really comment on that as I usually spread @ 600RPM and splatter isnt really a problem even with the flat pads.
So far... Im happy with them. To get a thourough review Ill have to use somthing to test the splatter factor.
