Hey Jon,

I ordered a Turbo Pad and a Blended Pad from Challenger and tried them today.  The blended Pad was too thin for OP, maybe for a Step son or a nice spotting towel.  The Turbo Pad appears to be like a Glad, good Glad.  Very close to the weight and feel though the seems don't seem to be stitched as well.  It cleaned well and stayed under the Defender without bunching and cleaned up well in the wash.  The Turbo's are $15 each, I ordered 5 more so I could get a better feel for them, hope they'll be able to replace the Glads.  I'll report back on them in a month, should be enough time to evaluate them.     

Funny how the Glads have gone south now that there is a $4,000.00 machine that can clean with out them, probably a coincidence :santa_shocked:

Turbos look great but will have holes in them usually around the 5th use.  Enduro pads don't stay under Op machines--mine at least.

Same thing happened to me with Turbo pads on the Challenger

Ok, I think I am just going to order 20 new blue muffled from Hagco again and run them. That has always been a pad I liked. Big O, I will be interested to know how the pads turn out. Thanks.

Velcro.  After John G. gets the pad driver all worked out and stocked up for the trinity, I may see if he can make a version for the defender / easy glide.  That would probably work better. 

The last 2 pad drivers I ordered from Clark he sent me the wrong size.  So I "have" a bristle pad driver but it's too big to run on my machine.  I also have a velcro one or two that are too big.  Have had to make due with the original one it came with.
