Q: Will this pad fit on any polisher?
A: It is designed for use with slow-speed rotary polishers equipped with a Hookit style 7" backing plate or compatible system (e.g., 3M’s 05717 or 05718); using it with non-Hookit systems may result in poor attachment or performance.
Q: How should I maintain the pad to ensure longevity?
A: After use, clean the pad by removing compound residue (e.g., with a pad brush or pad cleaning tool), then allow it to fully dry. ‘Spurring’ the wool fibers before first use and periodically during use helps restore cutting performance.
Q: Is this pad suitable for clear coat and sensitive panels?
A: While the aggressive wool cut makes it ideal for heavy defect removal, it dissipates heat better than foam, and when used flat and properly controlled, it can safely refine P1200-or-finer clear coats—even on heat-sensitive areas such as bumpers or spoilers—especially when paired with 3M Perfect-It EX Rubbing Compounds.
