I have a Griots Garage DA I have been using for about a year now, zero problems with it until my last detail. I was using the Meguiars Microfiber cutting disc, like I have since the release, and I melted the velcro. No biggie a lot of people have done so, well melted my second one right after. Then I switched to a Buff and Shine yellow pad and melted a hole through the backside right through the foam in the direct center. Finishing up the detail this morning using another yellow B&S pad and it started acting weird I took it off the DA and noticed the center was very hot and weak like the foam inside is broken down. Is it me all of a sudden? Do I have a problem with my GG DA? Is it my backing plate? I have been using the GG DA since last year, been using Meg MF since the release this year and been using the CG backing plate since June. I know wrong bp with mf pads mess the pads up but what about the foam pads?
 
Was the Griot's hot to the touch around the black part of the housing?
 
Only hot spot was center of the pad
 
Ordering new pads n changin bp we shall see
