Full product details, applications & manufacturer specifications
The 3M™ Perfect-It™ Foam Polishing Pad helps refine compounding swirls on automotive paint finishes.
The single-sided buffer pad’s 4 inch (101 mm) diameter allows for control and easier access in small areas or tight spaces. A specially designed foam face pattern holds polish and helps prevent slinging. Single-sided buffer pads feature insets for easy centring on rotary polishers, and 3M™ Hookit™ Attachment for quick change-outs. Use 3M™ Perfect-It™ Foam Polishing Pad with 3M™ EX Machine Polish to deliver a refined cut that eliminates compounding swirls and small paint surface defects after compounding in collision repair and industrial applicationss.
Its foam construction provides consistent contact with the surface, and its specially designed face holds the polish and helps prevent slinging to save material waste and cleanup time. A reverse taper protects the edge of the backing pad, helping reduce the chance of damage to the finish. This pad leaves a high-gloss surface ready for final finishing.
