Anyone have experience with cutting out or punching out larger pads to make smaller ones? mainly I'm looking at microfiber pads. I know there is a punch that is sold to do this but I recently ordered some MF pads that were too big for my polisher. I cut them down an inch with scissors and after fluffing away the outer material, they seem to be working just fine. I ordered some small MF pads from AG but they are now on back order. The smaller pads (around 2") are really the same price as something like a 6" pad. I could get several 2" pads out of one 6" pad so I'm thinking about just changing my order and cutting them out. I looked at that punch but it is pretty expensive. If I were making a lot, it might be worth it but I only need a few. Cutting them out with scissors is not perfect but it is close enough to where it is just a cosmetic/visual difference.
I've used the 6" ones that I cut down several times so far and they seem to be working just fine.
Anyone have any experience/input on cutting out small MF pads from larger ones?
