Re: China Pads VS the Rest

Am I missing something with respect to paste wax?
BTW, I can't find any information as to the country of origin of Lake Country foam (not the assembled pads). I'm assuming all or part of the raw materials are sourced from China or Southeast Asia and not made in the US.
Lake Country and B & S are made in the USA in their own manifacturing plants, the information is out there if you look for it. AG even recently posted a tour of the LC Mfg plant and their history. Seek and ye shall find.

Buff & Shine:
Humble beginnings and the entrepreneurial spirit best describe the start of Buff and Shine Manufacturing in 1987. From a small Torrance California warehouse, the groundwork for establishing a business identity was started by the company owner.
As with any new venture, it wasn't easy, especially in this competitive industry. Over time however, good manufacturing people were brought in and one by one buffing pads were built, tested and marketed in the local region. Eventually, the buffing pad range grew in diversity and selection, with this growth came the recognition we were making products customers appreciated for their quality and consistency. Having this reputation allowed us to grow nationwide, even worldwide.
We are constantly innovating and improving our manufacturing processes, this reflects our ability to ship promptly and deliver products that are competitively priced.
Lastly, we believe in talking to you, we make every effort to address your questions in real time and promptly.
