    For the most cut the Meguiars pads . The Rupes pad work really well but don't have the cut the Meguiars ones do. Both finishing pads finish down great.

    I guess the best would be Rupes MF pads, since they were developed specifically for their machines. But the Megs, Buff n shine, optimum MF pads, works well with the machine too.

    Meg's & Optimum MF pads. I do not like the Rupes MF pads as they're not nearly as pliable.
