    Re: 3" Pad Solution for PC 7424

    From the description of the new 3" Griot's backing plate, "Griots Garage 3 inch HD Backing Plate can be used with the Griots Garage 3 inch and 6 inch Polishers for precision detailing in small areas!"

    If I remember correctly from having one, the threads are way smaller on the GG3. Also, like Mike said, too meaty for the 3". I didn't think the GG3 had enough oomph. I sold it and got a Bigfoot Mini.

    I do have 2 GG6's. One of them will be getting this new backing plate

    Mine never stayed stuck very long, the ends began to lift even though I fully degreased the Shroud with 91% IPA prior to installation.

    Thus I had to again come behind a day later with a couple drops of Crazy Glue to re-affix.
    Try this too. Mousepad from Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 $4.95 free ship. Clean rubber side with IPA and LET DRY. 1/2" 3M emblem tape, top and bottom of spindle. I added contact cement in the middle, but I always overkill.
