I have a Porter Cable 7424 polisher which I purchase several years ago. I always used it with some pads and bonnets from Griots Garage, but I decided to give the Meguiar pads a try this time.
I use my polisher with a Porter Cable "18001 hook and loop standard pad" and I never have had a problem with the Griots products. I attached the Meguiar pad (which is really just a round piece of foam with some cheesy felt or something glued on the top)and after a couple of hours of use, the Porter Cable pad had basically cut through the cheap foam, ruining it.
Disappointed, I contacted Meguiars customer service. They agreed that the Porter Cable hook and loop pad was was safe to use with the Meguiar foam pads, but was basically told the problem I had was because of: 1) My backing plate was was "bad" and had rough edges 2) I was using too much pressure or 3) My backing pad was "very old" and could be brittle
I can not see how they justify selling these foam pads for $10 a pop! Save your money and look for a better product - that is what I am going to do. The Meguiar pads I bought are going back
