X-Heavy Cutting Pads - Open Cell Blue Foam
For Tunnel Washed Severely Damaged & Oxidised Painted Surfaces
Achieving Professional, High-Gloss, Chrystal-Clear results is one of our main goals when correcting & polishing our vehicles.
The more scratching, oxidation & surface contaminants that are removed or refined ultimately & drastically affects our final results!
Generally, as a "Rule of Thumb" we use Wool or Microfiber pads to "Cut" & softer "Foam" pad(s) to "Finish".
The reason this is normally the case is because we want to "Abrade" or "Cut" the surface FIRST to remove larger scratching & defects, THEN refine. This FIRST "Cut" however can often leave slight hazing & or tiny micro-marring scratches (nicks) which is normal.
These tiny induced scratches & hazing can easily be removed & cleaned-up though by using soft foam finishing pads which will instantly reveal high gloss, depth & clear reflections to the painted surface.
This is generally done with a Dual Action, Rotary or Forced Dual-Action Electric Polishers and each have their own advantages.
Using a Dual Action Electric Polisher is the safest & quickest way to achieve Professional results. A Dual Action or Forced Dual Action Polisher will not leave any holograms & eliminates any risks of "Burning" through edges or removing too much paint too quickly which can happen when using a Rotary (Non-Orbiting) machine.
In most cases only a 2-step (2 passes with 2 different pad-types) is sufficient for most DIY & even Professional Detailers to achieve drastically improved results for vehicles that haven't been completely destroyed by years of neglect or constant Tunnel-Brush-Washing.
We know what makes a good Paint Correction Pad. We've spent years Detailing & have used many different types & brands of pads however most seem to let us down in either durability, performance or longevity!
Our unique Closed-Cell, Special Blend German Foam will NOT prematurely shred, delaminate from the backing pad, bulge in the middle or tear easily!

Refract Car Care Foam Pad Colour Key:
Use as a Step 1. to remove/reduce Extra Heavy severe tunnel wash swirling, heavy oxidation and embedded defects on painted surfaces.

Compounding "Haze" may be evident after this stage on softer paints, we always recommend following with a combination of softer pads to achieve desired depth and gloss.
