Griot's Garage BOSS Correcting Foam Pads 6.5" (2-Pack)

Griot's Garage positions the BOSS Correcting pad as a light-to-moderate correction tier · targeting swirls, haze, and light scratches. In the BOSS system, it sits between the polishing pad (lighter cut) and a heavier cutting pad. Community use confirms correction and light cutting behavior. It's designed for use with BOSS Correcting Creams on the BOSS polisher family (G9, G13, G15, G21) but works on other DA polishers with compatible backing plates.

Yes. The 6.5-inch BOSS Correcting Foam Pad uses a standard hook-and-loop (Velcro) backing and fits 6-inch DA backing plates. Griot's Garage designed it for the BOSS polisher family, but it is compatible with other brand DA polishers using the same backing plate size. No rotary-specific guidance is provided in the listing.

Yes. As of the last cache update, this ASIN is classified as an Amazon add-on item, meaning buyers must reach Amazon's cart minimum with qualifying items before they can add it. If purchasing pads only, consider bundling with a pad cleaner, spur, or compound to meet the threshold.

Community evidence supports roughly 20·30 correction sessions for this correcting/cutting tier before noticeable performance drop · consistent with the category median for foam cutting pads. Machine-washable construction allows spur cleaning during sessions to restore cut.

Neither PFAS treatment nor natural rubber latex has been confirmed for this pad. Griot's Garage describes it as Firm Euro Foam, which is standard polyurethane foam construction. No manufacturer disclosure of PFAS or latex, and no community reports of hydrophobic treatment or allergic contact dermatitis have surfaced across the review corpus.
