Intra c3
They seam to work very well.the #2 pad wears out faster than the other two but that’s probably because the way I polish.lol. I already recommended them to my coworkers and they are interested.
-
Pretty decent pads
We tried a bunch of other three-step and we settled in on these. Perform better than some of the more expensive ones but I will tell you you will only get about 80 to 90% of the shine that you will get with a 7 step. But have had no complaints. Has pretty much revolutionized and cut our time in half or more from what we used to have to do.
