3M pads.

I agree with Asphalt Rocket, 3M makes some wicked wool pads. The wool pads that I prefer to use are the Menzerna wool pads and the 3M pads. I've tried quite a few wool pads, all the Edge wool pads, 3M, Menzerna, Meg's and some no name brand but the ones that I enjoy the most are the 3M wool pad, the only draw back is the size. That's why I prefer the Menzerna wool pad, but 3M has some wicked cutting pads.

Mezerna pads can be hard to get and if you can get your hands on some you'll pay dearly for them then don't forget about shipping.

As to where you can get them, well not sure I haven't found an online store that has them but I got mine from Europe thanks to a good friend of mine

The top one looks the same as the Presta ones i get over here,( i think they are made by the same company) and have got some excellent results with.

The bottom one i have but only tried it twice and seems like it would take a bit of getting used to.
