Black Finishing pad(55) K55BK

This item is brand-new, factory sealed.

5.5 Foam Pad - high performance foam pad for use with rotary and orbital polishers. With its patented Spider-Cut technology, this pad is ideal for the quick removal of scratches, swirls, oxidation and water spots!. Built for versatility, this pad handles everything from light cutting to final polishing, depending on your compound or polish of choice. The spider-cut face increases surface area for faster correction, while its open-cell foam design helps it stay cooler and last longer. Its safe with DA and rotary machines, giving you consistent results on any clearcoat. Whether you're refining after a heavy cut or chasing that final bit of gloss, this pad delivers the clarity, control, and also durability detailers demand. Level up your polishing processwith one pad that does it all. The slotted spider cuts across the face of the pad flex as you polish allowing better air movement over and through the pad for improved heat transfer from the pad to the air. This helps to keep surface temperatures lower and helps prevent the face of the pad from bowling-in. 3D foam pads are from open cell foam. This offers greater tensile strength and means they are more tear-resistant and thus last longer. 3D foam pads utilize the latest in foam chemistry to simply outperform the competition. Their foams are modified and fine tuned to for specific functions like durability, heat and chemical resistance, sustained cell wall structure under extreme work loads for more uniform cutting performance from start to finish.
? Sharp Foam Structure Run your hand over the face of a clean, dry 3D spider-cut foam cutting pad and you can feel the sharpness of the foam. This pad has a sharp, coarse foam structure, which is what you want when you need to remove defects quickly. Pad Design The slotted spider-cuts across the face of our foam cutting pad flex when spinning against the surface. This increases their surface area, which increases their cutting ability for faster defect removal. Product Trapping The spider-cut structure flexes to open up when buffing allowing the compound powders or abrasives to migrate in-between the spider-cuts trapping them for extended work time and more efficient paint correction. As youre buffing, the abrasives have greater contact against the surface for more efficient defect removal. Longer Lasting The open-cell design also offers great tensile strength as compared to closed-cell foam pads. This means they are more tear-resistant and thus last longer. Cooler Buffing Temperatures The slotted spider-cuts across the face of the pad flex as you buff allowing better air movement over and through the pad for improved heat transfer from the pad to the air. This helps keep surface temperatures lower and helps to prevent the face of the pad from bowling-in. Fast Cutting 3Ds aggressive spider-cut foam cutting pads cut fast and because the pad material is foam and not fibers, they leave a nicer finish. Fiber pads like our wool cutting pads will cut faster than any brand of foam cutting pad. This is the upside or benefit to a fiber pad. The downside is anytime you cut with a fiber pad, (any brand). This is the same feature that provides increased cutting, which is individual fibers cutting into the paint surface, also leaves deeper marring of the surface. If you dont need the most aggressive wool cutting pads for your project, then 3Ds spider-cut foam cutting pads cut fast while leaving a nicer finish. One of the most confusing topics, when youre first getting into machine polishing, is trying to figure out which pads to buy. There are hundreds of different types of pads, sizes of pads, colors of pads, and even shapes of pads. Here at 3D, we keep it simple. For most people and most detailing projects, you only need access to 3 different types of pads, Foam Chemistry Different chemicals can be added to a foam formula to make foam react differently under time, heat, pressure, and exposure to liquids or chemicals. Simple, non-descript foam pads cost less and thats because they do less. Some Detailers think foam is foam, but this is simply not true. Theres a lot of chemistry and physics that go into the design of a quality foam pad. 3Ds quality foam buffing pads use the latest in foam chemistry to create pads that simply outperform the competition. Best Value These pads cut better, cut more efficiently, cut cooler, and also last longer. 3Ds buffing pads dont cost more money, they make you more money. Versatile 5.5 Foam Pad works great on any type of polisher. That including rotary polishers, long-stroke polishers, short-stroke polishers, free-spinning polishers, and also gear-driven polishers.
