Thanks! I just have a really basic Griots garage random orbital (their older model) w/ a 5in. backing plate and used all 6.5 pads. CCS orange to cut initially but wasn't having a great time so I swapped to new Cobra cross groove pads I had. Ended up using a pair of white ones to do the cut, wishing I had picked up some of their orange pads. The CCS were old pads that I had cleaned and didn't hold up well. I had to cut a couple times on the panels and I let them get too hot.

I used Menzerna 400 heavy cut and then their 3800 Super Finish Plus. Going back again, i'd want to have some new orange Cobra pads on hand for the cut, then go to a white pad for the Menzerna 2500 and finish with the 3800.
