Built to Cut
Heavy correction without the guesswork
The orange foam on this pad is formulated for aggressive cutting, pulling out deep swirl marks, scratches and oxidation in fewer passes than a medium pad would need. The sandwich construction keeps the foam from folding under pressure, so you get consistent contact and consistent results across every panel.

Questions
Frequently asked
What size backing plate does this pad fit?
The Pads99 Orange Sandwich Pad is 6 inches in diameter and is designed to fit standard 5.5-inch and 6-inch backing plates, which are the most common sizes on dual-action and rotary polishers.
Is this pad suited to a dual-action polisher or a rotary?
It works on both. On a dual-action polisher it delivers solid cutting performance with less risk of burning through edges. On a rotary it will cut more aggressively, so keep the machine moving and avoid dwelling on thin clear coat.
What kind of compound pairs best with this pad?
Pair the orange cutting pad with a medium to heavy cutting compound. For severe swirl marks, oxidation or sanding marks, a body-shop grade compound will get the most out of the pad's cut level. Follow with a refining pad and a finishing polish to restore gloss.
Will this pad work on dark or black paint?
Yes, but take care with speed and pressure. On black and dark paint, any marring left by the cutting stage is more visible, so always follow the orange pad with a white or grey refining pad and finishing polish before inspecting under a light.
Can I use this pad on surfaces other than paint?
This pad is designed for painted surfaces. It is not recommended for use on glass, plastic trim or bare metal, as the cut level may cause damage to those materials.
How do I clean and maintain the pad after use?
Rinse the pad with warm water immediately after use and work out the compound residue by hand or with a pad cleaning brush. Let it air-dry face-up away from direct sunlight before storing. Avoid machine washing with harsh detergents, as this can break down the foam over time.
How many uses can I expect from this pad?
With proper cleaning and care between uses, a quality foam cutting pad like this should last through multiple correction jobs. Inspect the foam before each use - if it shows tears, glazing or permanent compression, it is time to replace it.
Do I need to prime the pad before use?
Yes. Apply a few spots of compound directly to the pad face and spread it across the surface at low speed before working at full speed. This seats the compound into the foam evenly and prevents the pad from throwing product when you increase speed.
