The Final Step
A buff cloth that does not compromise your correction
After hours of decon, correction and product application, the last thing you want is a cloth that introduces new swirls or leaves lint on the paint. The high-pile 500 GSM construction lifts wax, sealant and coating residue cleanly, leaving a flawless, streak-free surface behind.

Four reasons this cloth earns a permanent place in your kit bag.
-

Streak-Free Finish
Lint-free construction means no fibres left behind - just clean, gloss-ready paint.
-
Superior Absorbency
500 GSM weight picks up thick wax and sealant residue in fewer passes.
-
Versatile Compatibility
Works across waxes, sealants, quick detailers and ceramic coating flash stages.

Questions
Frequently asked
What products can I use this cloth to buff off?
It handles waxes, paste and spray sealants, quick detailers, and ceramic coating flash. The 500 GSM pile has enough absorbency to lift thick wax residue in one pass without reloading.
Is it safe on freshly corrected or soft paint?
Yes. The ultra-soft, high-pile construction is gentle enough for freshly corrected and soft paint systems. Light pressure and a clean cloth are all you need - the pile lifts residue rather than dragging it.
Can I use it on glass, trim and wheels as well as paint?
It works well on glass for buffing off glass sealants and quick detailers. For trim and wheels, a dedicated cloth is preferable to avoid cross-contamination onto paint panels.
How do I wash and care for these cloths?
Wash separately from other laundry in warm water (40°C maximum), with a dedicated microfibre detergent or a gentle liquid. Do not use fabric softener - it clogs the fibres and kills absorbency. Tumble dry on low heat or air-dry flat.
How many cloths do I typically need per detailing session?
A good rule is one cloth per panel or product type. For a full car detail involving wax and a quick detailer, budget three to five cloths minimum so you are always buffing with a clean face.
Can I use this cloth with a machine polisher?
These are hand-buffing cloths, not machine polishing pads. They are not designed to be attached to a DA or rotary. Use them by hand for the final buff-off stage after machine work is complete.
Is this cloth suitable for wiping off ceramic coatings?
Yes, it can be used during the coating application process to remove any high spots or streaks before the coating fully cures. Work quickly within the product's flash window and use a clean, dry cloth face for each wipe.
What size is the cloth and does size matter for buffing?
Each cloth measures 40×40 cm. That size gives you enough coverage to work a full bonnet panel in sections while still having enough cloth to fold to a clean face - four folding faces per cloth - without the bulk of an oversized towel getting in the way.
