Just so everyone on MB knows, I realize that my Monkey Pads are loved by some and hated by others. I attribute this polarization to a lack of good marketing sense on my part. Monkey Pads are meant for maintenance, polishing and "light" restoration. We were so busy with production and sales that we neglected to clarify some major misconceptions in time to prevent some damaging press. Some believed that we meant for Monkey Pads to be used in place of resin discs because we made them in 200,400,800,1500,3000,8000&11,000 grits. Monkey pads were in no way meant to replace resin discs for serious restoration. No pad of that kind can do that. You loose all clarity if you attempt a full heavy restoration with that type of pad. We made all those grits so you can use them to get a very smooth even finish at what ever level your customer desires ; after you use resin discs to remove damage and prep the surface. I'm glad it happened that way because it was the true professionals that bashed the Monkey Pads relentlessly on boards like MB. Had it not been for those people, I wouldn't have set out on this obsession to satisfy their need for a better faster way to the highest quality finish. SO FOR ALL YOU GUYS THAT SLAMMED MONKEY PADS, THANK YOU!!!
Seriously, I am grateful for the feedback as harsh as it was it inspired something amazing. You helped create the Cheetah Pads which I genuinely believe will set a new standard for our beloved trade.
