    There are two people in the word:

    1) The ignorant
    2) The imbecile

    The ignorant does not know the information whereas the imbecile knows the information and chooses otherwise. I would put this gentlemen in the ignorant category. He just did not know better. He is from the old school of using cut up t-shirts and turtle wax. He knows better now

Please let us know how many pads you used to the car and what you used to clean the pads afterwards. Also, if you have used them since and if they "lost" any cut. Thanks
    Those pads are pretty incredible. They will be my go to instead of MF from now on. I haven't used them again but have an opportunity to do so this weekend. After cleaning them (which was a breeze) I can tell you that they are still stiff as heck

I normally prefer working with the Rupes 21 but to speed up the process a bit I had to break out the Flex 3401. Those Carpro pad took the abuse and performed INCREDIBLY. I should have a review up in a couple of days.
    I can't imagine it being hammered but I believe you in that it was. Really great to see the amount of one step correction you were able to achieve.

    Looking forward to seeing the CarPro pad review. Could you give a thought on where this pad compares to the Hybrids or include that in your review?

    Amazing work! I just ordered a few of the pads for my GG3. Can't wait to try them.

    You should get the 1/4" flat purple pads from LC, they're foamed wool and actually speed the little GG3" up a lot, like a turbo is on it, LOL!

    To be honest, I am wondering if the GG3 won't be underpowered a tad bit for those pads. They are very stiff and rather aggressive (like the MF cutting pad) and may require at least the torque of the GG6 (with the 3" BP) to spin it properly

    I love those LC purple wool pads, but the Flash Pads do finish better.
