    Re: New Guy - Question About Foam Pads

    I have these Lake Country 3" pads. They also claim to be flat pads but are a little thicker than their 5.5" flat pads but seem to be the same composition.

    Keep in mind that with 3" pads you need a 2 7/8" backing plate. The 3.5" backing plate is for 4" pads.

    Re: New Guy - Question About Foam Pads

    I liked your idea with the LC Hydrotech pads. I love that there are only three choices. They also cut and finish incredibly well. I have a whole tote full of them ready to use.

    Buff and Shine are great too, but the smallest they offer is a 4"..

    Rupes offers pads with 5", and 3" velcro backings. Their faces are an inch larger.
