Real Cutting Power
German foam that works as hard as you do
The Pads99 Classic Burdeaux Cutting Pad is built from German-engineered foam with the cell structure and density to cut through heavy swirls, oxidation and scratches without falling apart mid-job. When you need correction done properly, this is the pad that does it.
Why Pads99
Built for Correction
Four reasons this pad earns a spot in your kit.
-
Aggressive Cut
Burdeaux foam removes deep swirls and heavy oxidation in fewer passes than softer grades.
-
Rotary-Ready Design
The hole-free classic construction is purpose-built for rotary polishers where vented designs are unnecessary.
-
German Engineering
Consistent foam cell structure from German manufacturing means predictable, repeatable correction results.
-
Durable Foam Body
Quality-controlled production ensures the pad holds its shape and cutting ability through multiple correction sessions.
Pads99 vs The Rest
How does it stack up?
Not all cutting pads are made the same. Here is how the Pads99 Classic Burdeaux compares to a typical budget cutting pad you might pick up elsewhere.
| Feature | DetailerSA | Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Manufactured in Germany | Yes | No |
| Strict quality control per batch | Yes | No |
| Consistent foam cell structure | Yes | No |
| Fits standard 150 mm backing plates | Yes | Yes |
| Suitable for rotary and DA machines | Yes | Yes |
| Available in multiple diameters across the range | Yes | Yes |
Made in Germany
Consistent quality, pad after pad
Manufactured under strict quality controls in Germany, every Pads99 pad delivers the same predictable foam density and dimensions. That consistency means you can dial in your machine settings and compound combination once and trust the result across every panel.

Questions
Frequently asked
What machine is this pad designed for?
The hole-free classic design makes this pad particularly well suited to rotary polishers. It can also be used on a dual-action machine with a suitable 150 mm backing plate, though the hole-free construction is a deliberate choice for rotary work where heat management is handled by technique rather than pad venting.
What backing plate size does the 6 inch pad fit?
The 6 inch Burdeaux pad is designed to fit standard 150 mm (6 inch) backing plates. This is the most common size for professional dual-action and rotary polishers, so compatibility with your existing equipment is unlikely to be an issue.
Which compounds or polishes work best with this pad?
As a cutting pad, the Burdeaux is built for use with heavy cutting compounds. Pair it with an aggressive compound to tackle deep swirls, oxidation and scratches in one or two passes. Because this is a cutting-grade pad, you will typically follow up with a medium or finishing pad and a lighter polish to refine the surface before applying protection.
What paint types can I use this pad on?
The Burdeaux cutting pad can be used on single-stage paint, standard clear coat and hard clear coat finishes. Take care on soft paints and thin clear coats - use lighter pressure and fewer passes, and always test on a small area first. It is not designed for use on PPF or vinyl wraps.
How do I prime the pad before use?
Prime the pad by applying a few small dots of cutting compound directly to the foam face and spreading it across the surface by hand before you start the machine. This prevents the pad from absorbing the first working load of product and ensures even distribution from the first pass.
How do I clean this pad after use?
Rinse the pad with warm water immediately after use to remove compound residue before it cures into the foam. For a deeper clean, use a pad-cleaning brush or a pad washer with a mild cleaning solution. Allow the pad to air dry completely - laying it flat with the foam face up - before storing it to prevent mould or deformation.
How many uses can I expect from this pad?
With proper care and cleaning after each use, a quality foam cutting pad from Pads99 should last through multiple correction sessions. Lifespan depends on the aggressiveness of the compound used, machine speed and applied pressure. Replace the pad when the foam starts to break down, tear or lose its consistent cell structure.
Where are Pads99 pads manufactured?
All Pads99 polishing pads are manufactured in Germany under strict quality controls. German production means consistent foam cell structure, reliable dimensions and predictable cutting behaviour from pad to pad - which matters when you are repeating a correction process across multiple panels or vehicles.
