    Meguiars da microfiber pads

    Been wanting to try these couple of questions, I have the porter cable can they be used on my flex 3401 also. I use the wolfgang triplets and blackfire aio as well, will these play well with said pads or should I get meguiars 105 & 205. Or are there other polishes that are the hot ticket. Thanks for your input

    Re: Meguiars da microfiber pads

    They will work very well with your pc....but IME they do not play well with the flex.

    D300,D302 and D301 are the recommended polishes and compounds for the mf pads but I have found many others that play very well.......M105,M205,101,100,ultimate compound/polish even D151 just to name a few.

    keeping the pads cool and clean are the most important thing for durability. Having an air compressor is the BEST way to keep them clean between section passes.

    hope that helps.....

    Depending on your technique with the 3401, you may want to use a Meguair's Foam Interface Pad with the DAMF pads

    How will the wolfgang products respond.

    I use Meg's MF pads on my flex with excellent results. Cuts hard clear in much less time than foam and leaves very little if any haze which cleans up beautifully with foam and light polish.

    I have no experience with Megs MF pads and wolfgang products. Sorry.

    I have been using the 5" kit with my gg3 polisher and love it. The supplied polish and finishing wax work well together.

    I have wolfgang tsr and fg, but haven't seen any reason to try them with the system.

    I have the pads and have recently used the WG products with the pads on my PC. They work really well together.







    This correction was Uber on MF cutting disc, followed by FG on polishing foam pad.

    Re: Meguiars da microfiber pads

    If you want to add some cutting power to the Flex then look at the Sonax Lambs wool pads.

    These always get over looked. The have great cut and since they are made from lambs wool they finish down much better than a traditional wool pad.
