Bite-sized pads for tight-area polishing.
Not so long ago, outfitting a polishing machine with super-small pads would have very likely delivered a subpar result. Thankfully, technological advances in buffing liquids & pads have made it possible create a dazzling finish utilizing our 1-1/4" (32mm) Spot Buffing Pads.

These 1-1/4" Diameter Buffing Pads are must haves for tight-area polishing tasks. When mounted to compact rotary or random orbital polishing machines, these pads can eliminate much of the difficulty and stress commonly associated with critical, tight-area work. Available in microfiber and foam varieties.

// 1-1/4" Extra-Cut Microfiber Disc. Ultra-low profile design.
This disc features tremendous cutting capability. Typical microfiber pad designs feature an integrated foam core, to aid in countouring. In order to minimize twisting action and consequent absorption of the machine's random orbital motion, its foam core has been eliminated. This is particularly important when using random orbital machines featuring very small stroke diameters. When mounted to a rotary-action polisher, this disc will vastly outperform a comparably-sized wool pad (which is why we don't offer one!)

// 1-1/4" Maroon Foam Cutting Pad. Low profile design.
( 11-06-2021 note: We are out of stock on this pad. ETA undetermined. ) The  maroon  foam pad is designated as a cutting pad. It features a dense foam that is somewhat rigid. Although it was designed for cutting, it leaves a fantastic finish. It is often used for general polishing tasks and final polishing. It's that good!

// 1-1/4" Yellow Foam Polishing Pad. Low profile design.
The yellow foam pad is designated as a polishing pad. It features a foam that contours with ease, yet has a rigid enough structure that allows it to be used with compounds, polishes, and waxes.  It is very versatile, and will not mar a finely-polished paint surface.

// 1-1/4" Black Foam Finishing Pad. Low profile design.
The black foam pad is designated as a finishing pad. It features a foam that feels soft to the touch, and contours to any surface.  It is generally used for final polishing, and for applying waxes and sealants. Use this pad for achieving maximum clarity on even the most delicate of surfaces.
