I was also hoping they would come out with a uro-fiber cutting pa but since the uro-fiber cuts pretty well I guess they are just going to add a finishing microfiber. IMO it's kind of redundant to release another finishing microfiber pad if they aren't planning on increasing the cut of the original uro-fiber
I'm really looking forward to trying the uro-wool pad. If it's as durable as the uro-fiber with more cut it will be a great additional to my line up.

LC MF cutting pads are better, IMO.
I see any lambswool pad giving the best results on forced rotation polishers(3401 or Rotary).
Atleast Rupes wool pads and lake country purple foamed wool cuts more worh 15 mk2 than mille which is more powerful than 3401.

The Rupes wool coarse pad has a lower nap, which will work better on a free spinning DA. The Uro-wool has a much thicker/longer nap. I don't like the Rupes coarse wool pad as it "bounces" to much. Doesn't provide a smooth buffing feel.
Purple foamed wool is not short nap and works great. Kamikaze woolpad is also great. I dont like Rupes coarse wool on mille but i like it on mk2.
Its only on AG or in US that don’t use wool on long throws, the rest of the pro detailing world is alittle ahead.

Jason Rose mentioned the coarse wool pad taking a minute to "settle in" or something to that notion. It's in one of the videos of Jason and Mike Phillips did together recently.

Those LC PFW pads even work great on a PC. We recently used them on a hammered 32' trailer.
I was using the pfw on the PC/Das 3 years ago where it worked better than the 3401 with pfw’s. The PC takes really well to wool alongside longer throws.
The Rupes coarse wool with the shorter nap doesn’t cut as well as their longer nap yellow medium wool or any other brand long nap. I’m just not getting any joy out of Rupes new MF and Blue Coarse Wool. Their Yellow Wool on the other hand is a masterpiece.

Why would Rupes claim opposite?

It was great!
I've used the purple thin foamed wool pads, and didn't at all like the user experience. They were really grabby.

completely agree^
I was shocked when I heard that people were using these pads on a 21mm throw polisher.

I do not understand how these long fiber wool pads can cut well on a random orbital? You’ve got to have a lot of torque going for you to make the fibers really cut. Gear driven and rotary makes WAY more sense.

The rest of the world has been doing it for years and disagree. In the next year or so you will see these pads being introduced in the States for “random orbitals” and it will more than likely start a shift from mf.

Amateur serious enthusiast here.......correcting sand "blasted" VERY small "craters" in my 2012 Corvette (Inferno Orange)
Mostly on Front Bumper, Road Grit thrown from vehicle in Front & also on sides of car ...debris thrown from Vette Tires
This far Ive had good results from my Porter Cable 7424XP, Meguairs Regular MF 6" pad and Meg's 100 polish.....but slight defects still remain
I have Uro Wool 6" & Uro-Tech Maroon 6" on Order
As well Ive bought but not used a a TORQ22D (I know huge difference vs the PC7424)
ADVISE Please as to how far to polish these defects and when to call it quits and live with it.......
I've thought about Damp Sanding with Trizact3000 but am Fearful

Personally, I just go over the paint to remove the scratches and swirls, and to shine up the paint.
I don't really go after the really deep pock marks in the front. That part of the car gets really beat up by virtue of where It's located, so I'd want as much paint as possible left on that part.
