    Lake Country Hydro pads

    Im looking to get some Lake Country Hydro Pads. Is it better to go with 5.5 or 6.5? From what I can recall the smaller the pad size the better. Is this correct?

    Yes. You will get better correction on PC, Griots with 5.5 pads. Flex DA will handle 6.5" pads but I found out they are two big for vehicles with curves. So for my flex I ordered a smaller backing plate and got 5.5 pads so I can get curves better.

    With rotary-whatever pad meets the size of vehicle panels your working on.
    With FLEX DA-The same.

    With all other DA-The smaller the pad the better.

    I think Loudog2 was asking,what machine you were using and not product(product is not relevent).
    Thou the Griots6" has decent power-5.5" pads will be your friend.

    My apologizes. Cant wait to get them, have cobra pads and they soaked up a lot of product. From what I read, LC doesn't soak up as much

    I have not personally tried/used the Cobra pads but none the less,5.5" pads will give your Griots more rotational correctional power.
