Re: da pad size
I like the 6" pads better than the 8" pads (Meguiar's of course) so, my 8" pads got shrunk down to 6" pads via a razor knife, rotary and sandpaper
The smaller pads can do smaller areas and in my experience easier to control. Also, you can use the same pads on a rotary with the 6" backing plate W64 and have the W67DA backing plate for the DA.
Just personal preference. I don't think the 8" pads may spin too well on a DA after a few applications even with cleaning on the fly, not even sure they make a backing plate for the DA for the 8" pads anymore.
As far as doing the same, yes in my experience just larger and harder for me to control.Philippians 2:14 - Do all things without grumbling or questioning, -
Re: da pad size
The smaller the pad, the less likely they are to bog down

Re: da pad size
Thats the main thing I have found. The larger pads tend to bog down on me. Thats why I prefer the smaller pads.quality creates its own demandComment

Re: da pad size
Agreed, all I have right now is 8" pads. I can't wait to get the smaller ones.Originally posted by J. A. Michaels View PostNavy Blue Metallic Pearl 2002 Camaro Z28: Build in progress. (416" LS3/9" Rear End/TH400/200 Shot)
