A perfect replacement for the dead backing plate on my Griot's 3" random orbital.

I am buying 5" and 6" versions of this backing plate right now to replace two that recently broke apart in the middle of a detailing job. But here's the thing: I've been using them for the past ten years, so they have more than earned their keep.

This is a must have if you own a PC 7424XP. Having a smaller backing plate allows to more easily and effectively go after most intricate areas during a buffing session. This paired with a 5in backing plate are all you realistically need!

Heart and soul of the correction. Plates are not sexy, but has to be perfect, which it was.

With the addition of this backing plate I now have a 3", a 5", and a 6" machine hanging on the wall ready to grab at a moments notice. I believe this backing plate with 5.5 pads will enable me to better hone in on paint correction issues. Looking forward to the warmer weather so I can start using this item in the shop.

Bought to use with a PC I bought on here. Works well. Pad adhesion is almost too good. Somewhat flexible, which is good, at least for a novice, when going over body lines.

bought this as a replacement plate for my first DA polisher ever which was from HF. It immediately calmed the DA down so it ran much smoother as it is nicely balanced. This and the low profile pads worked great on my first project... brought my 13 year old white oxidized truck paint back to a beautiful shine for a novice I loved it and I'm pretty sure it contributed highly to my success.

Great backing plates, easy to use and well made. The stock backing plate that came with my DA had a bad wobble to it and would make the machine vibrate.

I actually use this smaller backing plate on a regular size DA so I have more power but it definitely is light years better than the stock backing plates that came with my machine. The build quality seems excellent so I'm hoping it will last me for a while.

I purchased the LC DA 6 inches backing plate along with the 5 inches. I had a good experience with the LC 5" that I bought from Autogeek so I bought another one and wanted to try the 6". The 6" make my DA vibrate violently which is so bad for my hands. I tried it on 3 different DAs (2 Harbor Freight and 1 Porter Cable 7424XP) with the same results. I am not sure how will it translate on the paint. The 5" did not do that and was actually very smooth. I am not sure if the 6" belongs to a bad batch. I bought it on sale here at DI. I wish I could return it for a refund but sending it back from Hawaii and pay the price for the mail does not make sense at all.
Pros: 5" very good but I cannot make a comment on the 6"
Cons: 6" vibrates violently, no problem with the 5"
As far as the 6" is concerned I cannot recommend nor discourage anybody from buying this though.

The 4' backing plate is more like 3.5". 4" pad is a good fit. I use 4 and 6.5" w/ a 6" BP, L.C. ccs pads. Griot's Garage Random Orbital Polisher 6" 3rd Generation. Why spend $400 + when $150 works great. Important to get the correct feel while operating and choosing a good quality compound.

Enjoyed right up until it started falling apart at the 6 year point. Not a heavy user (every couple of months) and was stored in a plastic bin in an attached garage (good conditions). My 6" backing plate and 4" hand mount also fell apart at the same time unfortunately--despite wide differences in how much they were used. Definitely something about the material that only hold up for so long. A bit frustrating that I was very happy with it but have to purchase again just due to time passing.

The Lake Country Dual Action (DA) 3" Backing Plate is a must-have to allow getting to all of the smaller areas like the roof supports, detailing around the front light assemblies, door wells, etc. The 6" is is great fr the main parts of the car, but these are definitely necessary. The hook and loop on both size work remarkably great. There is no concern of losing them during use. A little challenging to peal off, but I am getting a handle on it with use. These are definitely the backing plates to use with a Porter Cable 7424XP. Get them with the pads you need and enjoy your detailing instead of working at your detailing.

VERY well built backing plates for the Lake County pads. I used the Lake County pads and they could not be more secure....terrific product!! I used the 4" plate for the smaller areas I wanted to get and the 6" plate for the larger portions of the vehicles.

I purchased the 3" backing plate for my Griots DA. I wanted another option when I needed something on difficult panels. Using this backing plate allowed me to do this with a machine that doesn't bog down.
I live the combo.

We used 5" backing plate with a DA polisher with 5/12 '' pads . The back of the pad is semi flexable so that it can bend just enough to get the job done.

These backing plates are well built and work fine but my only complaint is that the edges aren't beveled... the sharp edge cuts into pads if the backing on the pads is too small, such as Meg's 7006, 8006 and 9006 pads.

Been using this backing plate with my Porter cable for 2 years and still going strong.
