    Lightbulb What brands are these two pads?

    Alright I need to order more pads but I need to make sure they're the right ones.

    What are the ones on the right? They seem to work the best with the Flex while the ones on the left tend to just get destroyed

    Thanks guys!

    They look like Lake Country CCS pads

    They actually both look like the LC CCS pads. The one on the left is a white which is far less dense and coarse than the orange, the one on the right.

    Do you know if they recently changed the backing? Notice how the one on the right has a smaller velcro backing? I ordered the LC CCS pads and got the ones of the left.

    Ya it's not the density I'm worried about, I have both kinds in all densities. The difference between both sets being the velcro backing.

    Eric from LC is always changing the Velcro backing size from what i see.I believe they change it to compare how old and new designs work.

    I recently order some. The velcro backing on mine is similar to the orange one. It doesn't go all the way towards the edge.

    What i meant by density is that the less dens it is, the more prone it is to deteriorate.

    That doesn't have much to do with it when they are used and cleaned properly.

    Chat, LC had problems with the backing coming apart on some of the pads, the different size backing may have something to do with a change they made. Thats just a guess of course.

    That could be, but it seems the style that goes all the way to the edge is the kind that loses the backing. My old ones have never gaveway, yet out of my last order of 6 packs of the white polish pads I've already lost 3 of them due to the backing falling right off.

    So now I'm at a lose as to what to order. I don't want to waste my money on pads that'll fall apart right away
