FAQs
How many pads are included in this pack?
This pack includes three polishing pads.
What are the different types of pads for?
The pack contains three pads with different materials, designed for distinct stages of hand polishing: likely a coarser pad for initial buffing, a medium pad for refinement, and a fine pad for finishing.
Can I use these pads with a power polisher?
These pads are designed specifically for manual, hand-polishing applications and do not attach to power polishers.
How should I clean the pads after use?
The pads are handwash only. Rinse them thoroughly with clean water after each use and allow them to air dry completely.
What is the purpose of the removable handle?
The removable handle provides a secure and comfortable grip for manual buffing, making the polishing process easier and more controlled.
Are these pads suitable for interior car surfaces?
These pads are primarily designed for exterior vehicle bodywork. For interior surfaces, always check the compatibility of the cleaning product you intend to use.
How long should the pads last?
The lifespan of the pads depends on usage frequency, the products used with them, and proper care. With regular handwashing and air drying, they should provide multiple uses for detailing sessions.
Troubleshooting
Pad not gripping handle securely.
Ensure the pad is fully aligned with the handle's base and press down firmly. Check for any debris that might be preventing a secure fit.
Uneven polishing results.
Ensure you are using consistent pressure and motion. Try a different pad for the current stage of polishing or check if the product being used is suitable for the pad.
Pads seem to be degrading quickly.
Verify that you are handwashing the pads as instructed and allowing them to air dry. Avoid using them with excessively harsh chemicals or abrasive surfaces not related to automotive paintwork.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: The pads are designed for immediate use. To attach a pad, simply align it with the base of the removable handle and press firmly until it is securely seated. The handle is designed to grip the pad for manual buffing.
Compatibility: These pads are intended for use with a variety of automotive polishes, compounds, and waxes suitable for manual application on exterior vehicle bodywork. They are designed for hand-polishing applications.
Care: The pads are handwash only. After each use, rinse the pads thoroughly with clean water to remove any residue from polishes or compounds. Gently agitate with your fingers if necessary, but avoid harsh scrubbing. Allow the pads to air dry completely before storing them. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this may damage the materials.
