Re: 4" backing plate??
It's not the ideal setup, you need to be careful not to let a lot of heat build up. You're moving the bad out from the machine. How many of the pads did you buy?? There is a thread on here to trade products. I saw someone trying to trade some 5.5" CCS pads on there the other day. A lot of 3401 users so that might be a good thing to try first.

That's the conclusion I'm leaning towards. The 4" rotarty BP + adapter is approx $20... for pads that I may have issues with. Not a good ROI. Probably best to cut my losses and find something that is better suited.
I have 2 finishing pads, 2 polishing pads and 4 light cutting pads. One polishing and one light cutting used for less than 10 minutes.

Re: 4" backing plate??
Here is the thread. You may want to look through the last few days and see if there are any pads you might be able to trade for and go ahead and make that post there and list you want to trade for 5.5" pads
SAMPLES (original post updated)
I know a lot of people really like the light cutting pads. You might want to clean that one up a little, or is that stain?

Thank you!
It was used on a single stage. It's just stained, clean, but stained.

I figured that was probably the case. Hope you find a good trade.

Thanks!
Contact Kevin Brown At Buff Daddy .com I had one custom made for my hybrid pads.
