🟠Polishing Pad

Polishing pads are the foam or microfiber disc that mates your polisher to the paint — cutting pads remove defects, finishing pads refine the gloss. Match the pad to the job: orange or yellow cut for sanding marks and deep swirls, white or blue finish for hologram-free shine, black for applying glaze or sealant. Always have several on hand; a pad loaded with spent compound stops cutting and starts smearing. Pair with the appropriate polish grade and a clean microfiber to wipe between passes.
