I'm enjoying the Griots BOSS pads, but they do seem to wear a bit quicker than the LC CCS I was using previously. I like the results better though, so. 6 of one, half a dozen of the other.

Are the BOSS pads made by B&S? The Uro-Tec look quite similar.

I started with the GG6 (2nd gen) 8 years ago using B&S 5.5" Flat Pads--never had a pad separate from the Velcro, never had a pad collapse in the center--very durable. The GG6 has plenty of power to move the standard flat pads, the recessed Velcro adds a little protection when polishing near protruding objects and the little thicker pad (7/8") is a little more forgiving for the beginner.

Just make sure you get enough pads: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/...ut-my-car.html

My daughter hopes he doesn`t turn into his Pap and his OCD with polishers and supplies

I also just bought a new GG6, along with a Lake Country 5" backing plate and a few LC pads to go with it...but in reading these posts I feel like I should have purchased the GG 5" vented plate instead. Will I regret having the LC 5" plate? Should I step up to the GG vented plate? Now looking at adding a few more of either the LC Thin Pro pads or the Buff and Shine pads.

You’ll be fine with the LC plate. The 8mm DAs don’t generate enough heat to warrant a vented plate.

Highly recommend thinpros. Economical and they just work, especially profound effect on the short throw polishers.

I started off with that same normL LC 5" backing plate & pads and I've never even come close to blowing up a pad.



[the only exception was a 3" foam cutting pad I blew up trying to buff out an impossible headlight]

Just make sure not to become 1 of those guys who's polishing cycles seem to last about 5 straight minutes and you should be just fine.

I usually recommend green, blue, and red Buff and Shine Grip Pads, with some of their orange microfiber cutting pads to use if the green is sluggish to remove defects. Get the Buff and Shine plate to go with them. I like at least four microfiber, green, and blue pads, and two red.

Those pads with Megs Ultimate line are a great place to start.

"Besides the B&S Uro-Cell foam pads (closed cell), there are the B&S Uro-Tech pads (open cell) and for beginners, the maroon, yellow and white Uro-Tec pads"

What is the difference and why should we use one verses the other. I primarily use Speed for most of my corrections, which should I be using?
