Tonya you know hich pads also work well, the Meg's pads but I never used them with a PC only with a rotary.

As for Lake Country, it's been a wile since I used the Lake Country pads so I can't realy comment.

There are many pads out there...but when you find a system that works for you stick with it and venture out once in a wile...it get's borring using the same thing all the time..lol...well thanks to that mentality that's why I have a ton of pads lol.

Wel hope this helps

With the PC I still use LC flat pads (no dots or patterns) with orange used the most. Others are yellow, white, and gray/black.

The Cyclo gets the same colors with Cyclo brand pads which may be made by LC for all I know. Again, the orange ones are used the most. Only once did I have to resort to the yellows. I use the Cyclo ten times more than the PC but I'm glad to have both.

What happened to the Sonus hype? I have yet to try mine, but they do look like good pads.

I like LC CCS green. little more cut than the white pad, but still finishes LSP ready.

I really like megs pads but they fall apart to easy. the backing rips off, then you got to gorilla glue the thing back on like a hack job. Is the w67 BP supposed to be easier on not ripping the white part off the megs pads?

the CG MPT look similar, anyone tried them? they might have a better backing pad.

That is what I have. Sparkie and Meghan set me up with them. I think they work great! But I have not tried another brand

Ok thanks I think I will stay away from the yellow for now. Another member has said no yellow pads or wheel acid for me just yet LOL Thanks for the help!!

Ok thanks! Seems like the orange and white LC are going to be the most used! Thanks!
