What kind of polishing pads do you prefer?

It seems like Lake Country discovered "Hydro Tech". Is the foam used in the Buff n Shine closer to the open cell LC flat/ccs pads or more like the Buff and Shine?



I noticed the cyclo pads are also of the Buff and Shine/Uber type (colors, cut rating, etc).

Hydrotech is, IMO, non reticulated foam. Buff and shine are mostly using reticualted foam except from the white foam and the european foam.



I am pretty sure that buff and shine is manufacturing for Cyclo. They are manufacturing for Chemical guys, Über pads and many more.

I'm not a fan of the curved design either. But you can also get flat LC CCS pads in 5.5" and 6.5" :)



I think that the flat LC pads I have are ok, but the pads that have held up the best for me are Meguiars foam pads. The durability of the foam of the Meguiars polishing and finishing pads is very impressive. I have a couple of those pads that I have used for years, and it's actually the velcro that has started to loose it's gripping ability before the foam has been worn out!



If a car needs more than medium polishing I use wool pads, it's both more effective and runs cooler than foam when compounding.

Which meg’s pads do you use? It looks like I am going to be ordering a boatload of stuff tonight..
