    Suggested improvement for SSR1

    I noticed SSR1 stains my pads pink while SSR2 or 3 do not stain at all. Also, none of my other products stain the pads.
    Would you be able to look into changing the pink dye so it does not stain? Maybe I`m just too picky? :dunno

    Other than that, great product, I started using less product as you suggested and it`s working much better for me:cool

    I always end up using the same couple of pads w/SSR1 the pink hue makes them easy to identify. I wondered why that was the only product that stained

    So do I but it still kinda is annoying.
    It`s strange because SSR2 (blue) and 3 (tan) do not discolor my pads at all.....:dunno

    Could it be the pad :dunno I havent really paid attention to it, but I have realized the finishing pads tend to stain easier in general. It may have to do with the density of the foam or something. I also notice that my old megs pads have stains from all colored products that I have used on them. My 2c`s

    SSR1 stains my meguiars pads very slightly.

    SSR2 will stain ANY cotton or MF towel permanently.

    It is annoying, but I feel that it is worth the hassle. The towels and pads perform just as well after being stained as they did before so.....

    I generally use LC white polishing pads with SSR1. I have tried SSR2 on a MF and the color went back to normal.
