    5.5 pad size

    I would like to see a 5.5 pad from Meguiars now that the mf discs are out in a 5.5 size. Going from a 5.5 mf disc to a 7.0 pad is a bit of a letdown after you got used to the 5.5 and the manueverability of the small pads. I just picked up the HT line from Lake Country and would like to see Meguiars follow suit and make a 5.5 line and have 3 pads (cutting, polishing, finishing) just like the HT lineup. I was in the market for new pads as just the 2 from Meg's in the 7.0 size werent cutting it. I like the Lake Country lineup but their is way to many pads to choose from in most of their lines. I choose the HT line as its a system with 3 pads and thats all thats needed.

    Just wanted to put this out there and see what you guys think of it.

    I'll add my name to this request as well. A softbuff 2.0 version of 5.5" pads with the recess for easy centering would be great. They should use the W67DA and W64 backing plates as well.

    I have them as well in low profile version for my D/A polisher.
    On my 3401 I prefer Hybrid System.
