G15 Polisher — Pad Recomendations?

I would think your current pads should be fine.

I use LC and Rupes pads with the Flex, Rupes polisher and the Griots 6" random. All works just a-fine...

I'd get a couple Griots Fast Finishing MF pads. They work great as a light cutting or polishing pad.

If you do not use the GG Boss pads, then LC HDO pads were designed for long throw machines.

Also, I don't see why LC Thin Pros wouldn't work as well.

Buff and Shine Uro-Tec pads.

Yep, I use the thin pros on mine and they work just fine. I like the Rupes yellow pad a lot as well.

Get the boss pads.... the yellows and orange. Good pads and made for your machine

I agree with going with the BOSS pads but as Bruno recommended, get some Rupes yellow as well. That pad is my hands down favorite!

I recently purchased a G15 as well and have started testing out different pads.

So far, I've used my existing LC Flat and Thin Pro pads, LC HDO pads, and a Rupes pad. My clear favorite at this point is the Rupes with the HDO coming in second. The form factor of the Rupes pad with the steeper taper to the sides allows me to get it into tighter areas than any of the other pads I listed. They also aren't quite as stiff as the HDO's which allows them to work better on surfaces which aren't perfectly flat.

I used the Flat and Thin Pro pads on my old HF polisher for years and I still have a stock of them in new/good shape. I'll continue to use them until they wear out, but through attrition, I'll now be moving to pads better suited for the job. Rupes yellow will be my weapon of choice unless I need stronger correction.
