One Step. Done.
Correct and refine without swapping pads
The Pads99 Classic White Medium Pad hits the sweet spot between cut and gloss. It lifts light swirl marks and water spots while leaving the surface refined enough to go straight to protection, cutting your machine time in half on lightly defected paint.

Pads99 vs. Generic Foam Pads
What separates a precision pad from a cheap sponge
Not all foam pads are made equal. Here is how the Pads99 Classic White Medium Pad compares to a typical budget polishing pad you might find at a motor spares counter.
| Feature | DetailerSA | Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| German-controlled manufacturing | Yes | No |
| Consistent foam cell density across pad face | Yes | No |
| Fits standard DA and rotary backing plates | Yes | Yes |
| Safe on all paint colours including black | Yes | Yes |
| Maintains structure across multiple sessions | Yes | No |
| Suited to heavy compound work | No | No |
Built in Germany
Consistent density, every single pass
Manufactured in Germany under controlled conditions, the Pads99 Classic foam maintains uniform cell density across the full face of the pad. That means even product distribution, predictable break-down and a finish you can replicate panel after panel without guessing.

Questions
Frequently asked
What machine polishers is this pad compatible with?
The Pads99 Classic 6-inch pad fits any standard 5-inch or 6-inch backing plate on dual-action (DA) and rotary machines. The hole-free classic design is specifically suited to rotary use, though it works perfectly on a DA as well.
What level of paint correction does the white pad deliver?
The white medium pad sits in the light-to-medium correction range. It removes light swirl marks, fine scratches and water spots effectively. For deeper defects or heavy oxidation, you would typically step up to a more aggressive cut pad first, then finish with this one.
Which polishes work best with this pad?
This pad pairs well with all-in-one polishes, light finishing polishes and one-step compounds designed for light correction. It is not suited to heavy cutting compounds, which are better matched to a more aggressive foam or wool pad.
Can I use this pad on all paint types, including dark and black paint?
Yes. The medium-cut white foam is safe on all paint colours including dark and black finishes. On darker paint, always inspect your work under a focused light source to confirm swirl marks are fully cleared before applying protection.
Can I use this pad by hand, or does it require a machine?
While the pad can be used by hand in a pinch, it is designed for machine use. Hand pressure alone will not generate the heat and friction needed to activate most polishes properly, so results will be significantly better on a DA or rotary.
How do I clean and maintain this pad?
Knock excess polish off the pad with a pad cleaning brush or compressed air during use. After your session, rinse thoroughly with warm water and a pad cleaning solution, working the foam gently until the water runs clear. Allow the pad to dry face-down or suspended in open air before storing.
How many uses can I expect from a single pad?
German-manufactured under strict quality controls, the Pads99 Classic foam is built for durability. With proper cleaning after each use, a single pad should handle multiple detailing sessions before showing meaningful wear. Avoid machine washing, which degrades the foam cell structure over time.
Can this pad be used before applying a ceramic coating or paint sealant?
Yes, and it is an excellent choice for that process. Use the white medium pad with a finishing or one-step polish to refine the surface and remove any light defects, then wipe down with an IPA prep solution before applying your ceramic coating or sealant. The pad leaves paint smooth and ready for a coating to bond correctly.
