Same here, used all different pads on my 15 mk2 never had an issue. And on my test panels I really let the machine go.

Use LC HD Orbitals, host of other LC, BnS,Scholls,Rupes etc. on my 15 and never an issue on grip, if anything it grips too much and doesn't let go.

In the event there might be an issue with the backing plate, I would contact Dylan, or Todd.

This is happening with Rupes backing plate and pads. I have this same issue and have heard a few others on this forum have it as well. I have emailed Rupes and hoping that I can find the blue backing plate that I saw in a previous thread. This is frustrating since I have only used twice luckily I have a flex that does not have this problem.
