German Precision
A finishing pad that does what it says
The Pads99 Green Twister is manufactured in Germany to consistent quality tolerances, so the foam density and face profile are the same pad to pad. When you are at the final waxing stage, consistency is everything.
Why the Green Twister
Four reasons to make it your go-to finishing pad
Engineered in Germany for the final stage of any detail.
-
Ultra-Soft Foam
Soft enough to apply wax on fully corrected paint without introducing any new marring or haze.
-
Twister Face Profile
The shaped pad face distributes wax and sealant evenly, reducing product pooling and streaking.
-
Protects Your Work
Purpose-built for the protection stage, so it lays down product without undoing your correction work.
-
Consistent Quality
German manufacturing under strict quality controls means the same result from the first pad to the last.
How It Compares
Green Twister vs a generic foam applicator pad

The Right Tool
Built for the last step of the detail
Pair the Green Twister with your favourite wax or sealant and a dual-action polisher, and you get a thin, even protective layer across the whole panel without the streaking or uneven coverage you get from hand application. It suits both professional detailers running high volumes and enthusiasts who want a proper result on their own car.

Questions
Frequently asked
What type of products should I use with the Green Twister Pad?
The Green Twister is a finishing-grade pad suited to waxes, paint sealants and finishing glazes. It is not designed for compounds or cutting polishes - use a firmer cutting or polishing pad for those steps and switch to the Green Twister for your last protection stage.
Is this pad compatible with dual-action and rotary machines?
Yes. The 5-inch hook-and-loop backing means it fits standard 5-inch backing plates on both dual-action and rotary machines. If you run it on a rotary, keep speed low to avoid heat build-up through the soft foam.
What size backing plate do I need?
A standard 5-inch hook-and-loop backing plate is the correct match. Most popular dual-action polishers - Rupes LHR15, Maxshine M15, and similar 15mm throw machines - use a 5-inch plate as their standard fitment.
Can I use the Green Twister Pad on dark or black paint?
Absolutely. The ultra-soft foam grade is precisely what you want on dark paint where any residual marring shows up immediately. It will apply wax or sealant without adding swirl marks or haze to a corrected finish.
How much product should I apply to the pad?
A few pea-sized dots spread across the face of the pad is enough. Prime the pad on its first use, then reduce the amount on subsequent passes. Too much product on a soft pad leads to uneven layering and excess residue to buff off.
How do I clean the Green Twister Pad after use?
Rinse the pad under warm water immediately after use and work out residual product with your fingers or a pad-cleaning brush. Avoid hot water, which can distort the foam. Let the pad air-dry fully before storing it flat or face-up.
Can I layer multiple coats of wax using this pad?
Yes. Allow the first coat to flash and buff off fully before applying a second layer. The soft foam applies each coat thinly and evenly, which is exactly what you want when layering wax for depth and durability.
What is the twister design and why does it matter?
The twister profile refers to the shaped or contoured face of the pad that helps distribute product across the surface more evenly compared to a flat foam face. It reduces the chance of product pooling in one area, giving you a more consistent finish with less effort.
