Waffle Polishing Foam – Ø 150 mm · Green · Easy Mount

Waffle polishing pad Ø 150 mm in green foam, designed for correction/finishing operations in auto bodywork. Its easy mount with velcro ensures quick changes between polishing stages.

Key Features

• Waffle structure: better air circulation, reduced heat buildup, and even distribution of polish.
• “Green” versatility: hardness/spring suitable for light to medium correction and pre-finishing phases.
• Easy mount: high-strength velcro backing for standard plates — pad change in seconds.
• Grip and stability: waffle profile that limits “hopping” and improves control on curves and edges.

Technical Specifications

• Usable diameter: 150 mm (≈ 6")
• Backing: hook & loop velcro – quick mount/dismount
• Working face: waffle foam (regular cells)
• Density/spring: medium (correction and pre-finishing polishing)
• Plate compatibility: Ø 125 mm recommended (safety margin on edges)
• Machines: rotary, orbital, and dual-action orbital polishers
• Surfaces: automotive clears, gelcoat, utility/PL clears

Recommended Applications

• Removal of haze, P3000/P2000 micro-scratches, light holograms.
• Intermediate step after heavy cut compound (microfiber/wool pad) before finishing pad.
• Reduction of light orange peel effect and uniform appearance after rough polishing.

Usage Tips (Workshop)

• Priming: moderately load the pad, spread the polish at low speed, then work at cruising speed.
• Pressure & passes: light to moderate pressure, cross passes, clean the pad regularly (brush/air) to avoid saturation.
• Fresh clears: prefer moderate speeds and short contact time to limit heat buildup.
• Wiping: clean microfiber between each pass; check under inspection light.

Maintenance & Safety

• Cleaning: pre-wash with warm water + mild soap, rinse, squeeze without twisting; flat drying away from heat sources.
• Pad rotation: alternate several pads to limit temperature rise and maintain consistent cut.
• PPE: nitrile gloves and goggles depending on products used; ensure proper ventilation.
