Hello! Hope everyone is having a great weekend.
I'm wanting to buy some new pads and start fresh. I'll be using a Flex 3401 & PE-14-150. I have the stock BP on the 3401 and the Flex 5in Foam HD BP. I am currently using CG hex Pads and Lake Country CCS, neither of which I have been really impressed with. I'm torn between the Kompressor pads and the HT. Any tips on what size or which one you like better? Are their better options that you like? What is your favorite wool pad set up? After recieving great advise from the wonderful members of AG, I am going to get the SURBUFF pads for correction, but still want other options for correction. I primarily use M105/M205 and D151. I work on a fair amount of Daily Drivers but also do a lot of high end vehicles. my budget is around $150. Thanks and can't wait to hear your opinions!:props:
 
I just posed this on another thread asking about Meguiar's D151

Light to Medium defect correction

Flex 3401

  • Lake Country CCS Yellow, Orange, and White foam pads
  • Speed 5 to 6
Heavy to Medium defect correction

Makita 9227

  • Lake Country Kompressor pads; Purple, Yellow, and Orange, and White
  • Foam wool polishing pad
  • 1500 to 1800 RPM
I work the product onto the paint much like any polish. Work a 2 X 2 section at a time in a crisscross pattern. I apply the product to the pad then begin. I find this approach especially with the rotary slings allot less product everywhere.

Let haze then buff.
 
Thanks bobby. I'm going to get your set up. The foam wool is the people pad correct?
