Well, in celebration of actually getting a couple of nickels back from the government after filing my taxes I decided to place my first order with Rick @ ADS.
I completed the online order at roughly 5:10 pm Friday afternoon before leaving work, and by the time I got home after stopping for Miller Time I had an email from UPS telling me the order had shipped! Of course, I forgot he's 3 hours behind me in Arizona
At any rate, I ordered a six-pack of the soft buff pads (6.5") to go with my new G110 unit, and now I'm not sure whether I wanted these or the new 2.0 7" pads. (I just checked again, looks like the DA kit I ordered comes with some 7" pads)
I've been reading the search results every chance I get, and basically there's two schools of thought:
1. The new 7" pads are a slightly more efficient foam formulation, as well as being machine washable. Added flexibility looks like a plus as well; downside looks like power required to turn them.
2. The "standard" 6.5" pads look like the industry standard, cleanable by hand and well known in terms of performance and limitations.
I guess my question is this: since I'm having the order sent to a friend in Florida to bring home later this month, should I order a half dozen 2.0 pads & return the 6.5" or leave it the way it is so that I can sample both, since the kit comes with some 2.0s? {Mike, I realize that ultimately I'm tne only one that can make the decision, but I would appreciate some expert advice}
