As some of you may know, Rob from WCD had a special several weeks ago that offered two large towels for $14.50 shipped. I have used the WW towels from WCD twice today and, I have to say, I am very, very impressed. I was comparing these towels to the large PakShak towels of similar quality...

Which backing plate should I buy if I want to use my PC pads with the rotary. The LINK indicates a 4.75 inch backing plate for the rotary if using the 6.5 inch pads, but why won't the 6 inch backing plate work with the 6.5 inch pads? Is the 6 inch to big? JJ
