Help, foam pads

Big Daddy Joe- Welcome to Autopia!



Yeah, that looks like a good pad package. I'd also consider a smaller backing plate and some 4" pads for tough marring. The 6.5" setup is (IMO) pretty mild.
 
Here's an idea.



Buy the PC 7336sp (same thing basically) at Lowe's for $99 (or $69 if you're in WI :) ). Then buy your pads and backing plates at http://www.exceldetail.com

They have the 5" or 6" backing plate + 6" pads, and they also have the 2.75" backing plate + 4" pads. Almost always cheaper than Autogeek too.
 
With the standard sized pads (6.5 or 7") definitely go with the 6" backing plate. I made the switch recently and I think it makes a difference because pressure is spread over the whole pad more evenly. Accumulator has a good suggestion about the smaller plate and pads for spot polishing.
