I replaced the pad of the PC333 ROS shortly after buying it because I
applied pressure while sanding, mistake. Heat melts the loops on a
Velcro pad.

Good Lord. I've been using mine for a couple years and applying what I
thought was pretty hard pressure now and then, and haven't had any trouble
with the pad.

Just how hard were you pushing that thing, and what were you doing?
