Questions
Frequently asked
Which polishers is this pad compatible with?
The 5-inch Coarse Microfibre Pad is designed for Rupes BigFoot dual-action random orbital and gear-driven orbital polishers. It is suitable for any DA tool that accepts a 5-inch backing plate.
Which compound should I pair with this pad?
Rupes recommends pairing this pad with the Rupes D-A Coarse Compound. That combination delivers the fastest defect removal available across the Rupes BigFoot polishing system.
What types of defects can this pad remove?
This pad is built for the most severe correction jobs - heavy swirl marks, deep scratches, sanding marks and other major surface defects on fully cured or harder paint systems and flat solid surfaces.
Is this pad suitable for softer paints?
Because of its aggressive cut, this pad is best reserved for harder or fully cured paint systems. On softer paints it may remove more material than intended. Test on a small area first, or consider a lighter-cut pad for softer finishes.
What finish does this pad leave behind?
Being a coarse-cut microfibre pad, it will leave light haze and micro-marring that needs to be refined. Follow up with a Rupes medium or fine pad and an appropriate finishing compound to bring the paint to a gloss-ready state.
How do I prime and use the pad correctly?
Prime the pad with a few drops of D-A Coarse Compound before starting. Apply product directly to the pad or onto the paint surface in a small area. Work at low speed to spread the compound, then increase speed for the correction pass. Keep the machine moving at all times to avoid localised heat build-up.
How do I clean and maintain the pad?
Clear spent compound from the microfibre face regularly during a session using a pad cleaning brush or compressed air. After use, wash the pad by hand or in a washing machine on a gentle cycle with warm water and no fabric softener. Allow to air-dry fully before storage.
Can this pad be used on glass or trim?
This pad is designed for paint correction on automotive paint surfaces and flat solid surfaces. It is not intended for use on glass, bare metal trim or rubber. Stick to painted panels for best results and to avoid damage to surrounding materials.
