Technical Stikit vs hookit disc backer pads

A question for the body men. Just received a new backer pad for my air grinder. I use Stikit discs. They sent a Hookit pad in a Stikit box. (3M) The surface of the new one feels and looks like the Stikit one that I have, save for a lot of minute cuts in the surface that I can't feel. Can I successfully use Stikit discs on the Hookit pad.

 

Try it.I like both but the hook allow on/off/on again easier.

 

You can try it but I'm not sure how long stickits will stay on the hook and loop pad.

Now might be a good time to switch to hook and loop... I did 20 years ago, and never looked back.

 

A hook it pad has actual hooks on it like one side of velcro not just a bunch of slits. Your description does not sound like a hook it pad. This is a hook it pad.

I have both and the stick on won’t stay on my hook pad.

 

Stik it needs a smooth pad to stick. They won’t stay on a hook it pad. I think if you try the hook it pad you will like them

 

I like both but you need to switch backing plates or have two of everything. I like the 320 for my finish DA, I believe it cuts better longer. The disks are expensive.

 

Thank-you everybody for the responses, especially K13 with the picture. I didn't know what a Hookit pad should look like. There was a sneaking suspicion in the back of my head that what I had wouldn't hold a Hookit disc. What they sent me is a Stikit pad, it just had the wrong label put on it at the factory.
