Anyone try the new Rupes microfiber pads?

I Really hope that these new pads will beat Meguairs which are still my favourite mf pads.

That makes sense. Probably to match the foam on their wool pads.

That’s good, I never cared much for the polypropylene backing. I’m liking the Rupes wool more and more each time I use them.

They have released their twisted wool pad know. Don't know if it's just for the rotary polisher or if it would work great on the longthrows too. Would be interesting to hear what you think about them if anyone tries them out

Yellow wool is nice. Pretty smooth buffing. I don't like the blue wool, as it's the opposite buffing experience, IMO.

Funny, I’ve only tried the blue wool and with Menzerma 400(on Rupes 15) I can get it to finish out darn near LSP ready. I’ll have to try the yellow wool pads.
