CCS Technology
Polish where you need it, not buried in the foam
Conventional foam pads absorb the bulk of your polish below the working surface, starving the paint contact zone of product mid-pass. Lake Country's patented CCS cell pattern holds polish in the pockets and releases it progressively, so every part of the pad face stays loaded and working from the first stroke to the last.
Why CCS
Engineered for Better Finishing
Four reasons the CCS pad outperforms standard foam in the finishing stage.
-
Controlled Polish Release
Patented cell pockets meter polish to the surface gradually, keeping the working face consistently loaded.
-
Less Heat Generated
Reduced foam-to-paint contact lowers friction, protecting clear coats and dark paint from heat stress.
-
No Pad Skipping
CCS pockets reduce surface tension so the pad sits flat and tracks evenly across the panel.
-
High-Gloss Finish
Black finishing foam removes light haze and machine marring, leaving paint clear and reflective.
CCS vs Standard Foam
How It Stacks Up Against a Plain Finishing Pad
Not all finishing pads are equal. Here is how the Lake Country CCS Black Finishing Pad compares to a typical smooth-face foam finishing pad in the areas that matter on the car.
| Feature | DetailerSA | Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Controlled, gradual polish release | Yes | No |
| Reduced heat from lower surface contact | Yes | No |
| Prevents pad skipping on panel | Yes | No |
| Removes light haze and finishing marks | Yes | Yes |
| Compatible with DA / random orbital machines | Yes | Yes |
| Worldwide patented foam cell design | Yes | No |
Built for DA Machines
Flat contact, no skipping, less heat
The reduced surface tension from the CCS pockets lets the pad run flat on the panel without fighting you, and the lower friction contact keeps heat out of the clear coat during finishing passes - important on dark paint and thin factory finishes.

Questions
Frequently asked
What machines is this pad designed for?
The CCS Black Finishing Pad is made exclusively for DA (dual-action) or random orbital machines. It is not designed for rotary use.
What backing plate size does this pad fit?
The pad measures 6.5" in diameter and 0.875" thick, and is sized to fit a 6" backing plate.
What is CCS Technology and why does it matter?
CCS (Cutback Random Orbital) Technology uses a pattern of partially closed foam cells across the pad face. These pockets hold polish and release it gradually as you work, rather than allowing the foam to absorb the bulk of the product away from the working surface. The result is more consistent product delivery, less wasted polish, and better finishing performance throughout the pass.
What type of polish should I use with this pad?
The black finishing pad is suited to light finishing polishes - products designed to remove fine swirl marks, light haze, and machine marring left from a cutting or polishing stage. Pair it with a dedicated finishing polish rather than a heavy compound to get the most from the foam grade.
How do I prime the pad before use?
Apply a few pea-sized dots of finishing polish directly to the pad face and spread it across the panel at low speed before running the machine at working speed. The CCS pockets will help regulate how the polish feeds out, but priming the pad first prevents dry buffing on the first pass.
Can this pad be used on dark or black paint?
Yes. The reduced heat generation from the CCS cell pattern makes this pad a good choice on dark and black paint where heat-induced hazing is a concern. The finishing foam grade is also gentle enough to work on sensitive paint systems.
How do I clean and maintain the pad?
Brush the pad face clean during use to clear spent polish from the CCS pockets. After the session, wash the pad with a dedicated pad cleaner or mild soap, work the foam gently to release trapped product, and allow it to air dry completely before storage. Avoid wringing the foam, which can tear the cell structure.
Can I layer a sealant or wax application on top of a finish done with this pad?
Yes. Once the finishing stage is complete and the surface is clean and clear of residue, you can proceed directly to applying a sealant, wax, or ceramic topper. The finishing pad itself does not leave any residue that would interfere with bonding, provided you wipe the panel down with an IPA prep spray before coating.
