Best pads - dino19 - 05-07-2014
Using a 175 on CGD what pads would work better on carpet squares?
Fiberplus or fibermax

Is it loop construction. If it's loop - either pad will work fine.
If it's cut pile, then you may want to opt for the gentler beige FiberPlus.
As a rule though either pad will work well on just about any commercial carpet you come across. With cut pile you just want to keep an eye on the carpet to make sure everything's OK, if you're using FiberPlus Max. The beige FiberPlus pads last about 20% longer, but the FiberPlus Max clean about 20% faster - so there's a tradeoff.

That' a fact. The grey pads allow you to cover more loop carpet in the same time. They are also better at "grinding" out stuborn stains. I need to start using the beige pads since I have boxes sitting around, but I seem to always go for the grey pads when I start a job.
