What pads would be good to apply a AIO product with my Flex ????

I saw the new B/S uro-cell foam pads ..

Thanks !!!!
 
I only use the Lake Country Hybrid 5" pads with my Flex and using an AIO I choose a white pad.
 
If you're only concerned with finish on all paints, use a polishing pad. For me, it depends on the paint. If I tried a polishing pad on hard paint, but got better cut and equal finish with a cutting pad, I'd use the cutting pad. I use the paint hardness as far as choosing what pad to use with an AIO.
 
This would be on 2 cars, 2015 Tauras Pearl white , 2015 MB Polar White..

Those paint systems are normally on the harder side, especially the MB. I'd pick up some B&S yellow and orange pads. The new B&S Uro-Cell pads and 3D spider pads work great with the 3401, but they don't sell them at AG. The orange and white LC hybrid are pretty good, too.
 
I saw the new Uro-cell on another site.....

We won`t open the door on what AIO one to use :laughing:
 
for AIO I used to use the Green Hexlogic and they worked great. I have found with HD Speed though I can get away with Hexlogic Orange or the light Blue Lake Country Hybrid Force Pads. All those work great on the Flex 3401. In order of my choosing

Light Blue LK Hybrid Force - Great on hard paint
Orange Hexlogic - Great on Hard to Medium
Green Hexlogic - Perfect for Softer Paints


^^ Just my personal experience.
 
Im not sure the pad brand or style is as important as what the pad is for. I think you can use either a polishing pad or a cutting pad. I have heard people do both. I suppose start with a polishing pad (least agressive method first) and see how it does. If you need more cut, move up to a cutting pad.
