MF Pads Life Expectancy

[Relentless]

What is the expected life span of the DA MF pads?

While using the pad I noticed the center starting to bubble like a loose rug so I knew what was coming. After 2 or 3 more passes it came apart. I was using a 1st gen PC7424 on speed 5.5-6. The thing is I've only used this maybe 10 times, probably not even that much, since I got the DA MF System. Thankfully I had another one to use but of course now I'm wondering how long that will last. The polishing pads seem ok so far.

I really like using this system so hopefully this was just a one time thing.

Re: MF Pads Life Expectancy

Hello, I recently bought the MF system (got it about last week) and was using it for the first time today and allready the MF cloth started to come off one of the pads and the seccond one is also bubbleing up like Relentless is pointing out. I was using speed number 4 as reccomended by Meguiars. Any Help?
