Confused with pads

[MonkeyP]

No mate, you'll need a 5" backing plate for the 5.5" pads and a 3.5" for 4" spot pads.

Ye sorry meant 5" plate for the CG 5.5"pad
Found the meguire plates. Gonna have a look at other makes of plates as well.

Need waxstock to come quickly as gettin impassiant. Tempted to buy it now off Chris. Lol

I prefer flat pads over the hexlogic and lake country. Still good pads though! Backing plates are a killer price! 

Sometimes use a Sonus 5.5" polishing pad with lime prime or Britemax Black and the swirls are gone.

Also prefer the 4" pads on the DA just cuts better and ideal for mk2's as every panel has some odd angle to it.

Too many choices!

Why pay £144 for a DAS6 when you can pay £100 for tbe same machine with cleanyourcar.co.uk written on it? You've got too much money!

Just put DAS6GROUPBUY in the box at checkout and they'll take £15 off that price plus free postage.

havent got too much money just not enough sense! I remember someone saying that there was an identical DA instead of the Kestrel but i couldnt remember who sold it.

Thanks for the group buy code will definitely be using it (owe you a pint for that). gonna try and wait till Waxstock tho to get everything else cos never no what i may find!  also will allow me to give the car a full detail ready for the cold season!

Had a play with Scholl Concepts compounds and pads today. I am very impressed with Scholl at the moment.

Was waiting for this joke! 

Would i need a couple of the same pads as i have read its a good idea to change them after each panel.
