What's the most utilized pad size you are using for small areas?

Are you finding you are using the 2" or 4" pads most often?
How often do you use an extension?
 
3" for sure. Years ago LC made a 4 inch pad for the flex 3401. I hardly ever used them.
 
Use 3” alot. Have a 2” plate and pads.... never used them.

3" is the most used after 5.5 I think.

I personally just use 5.5 for everything even though I have a 3# backing plate with 3" pads . I tried it once and I did not like it , it felt like I had zero control on my DA polisher. Mind you that I was using my Griots 6" with a 3" backing plate, I dont recommended it. I really think a 3" pad should be used with a 3" polisher , lighter, smaller .

My 3 inch backing plate and pads are sitting inside a box collecting dust now , maybe someday I buy a proper 3" polisher and give it a second shot. For now 5.5 is good for everything I do
