3M Finesse-it Buffing Pad - Orange Foam White Loop

The 3M Finesse-it Buffing Pad - Orange Foam White Loop is a high-quality product designed for final and extra fine finishing steps in automotive OEM clear coats. It is also effective in removing sand scratches or swirl marks from previous finishing steps. These orange foam buffing pads are compatible with the 3M Finesse-it Trizact Paint Repair System for AOEM paint and clear coats.

Manufactured with the 3M Hookit attachment system, these buffing pads offer quick and easy pad mounting and removal. The Hookit system ensures a secure hold during use. These pads can be attached to a hook-and-loop backup disc pad (sold separately) on rotary or random orbital tools. They can be cleanly and easily removed, and can be re-used multiple times throughout the life of the pad.

The final finish results achieved with these buffing pads depend on the specific polish used, the type of coating being worked on, and the tool being used. These foam pads are designed to address the unique chemical composition of evolving paint and clear coat technologies. Compared to wool pads, foam pads are generally less aggressive and produce a finer finish. They operate at higher RPMs and rely on a combination of cutting and heat buildup to melt the surface coating slightly and remove fine scratches, swirl marks, and surface marring.

The abrasive level of foam pads varies based on their softness and the size of the cell holes. Pads with larger holes are more aggressive, while "closed cell" pads are the least aggressive. These foam buffing pads can be used in conjunction with polishes and are suitable for use with rotary and random orbital tools.

3M Finesse-it products are specially formulated compounds and polishes designed for use on OEM and baked refinish paints. They are highly effective in removing sand scratches, defects, and swirl marks from a variety of painted surfaces. These products are an integral part of 3M's recommended buffing system for repairing surface defects on clear coats, lacquered wood, solid surfaces, gelcoat, powder coat, industrial paint, acrylic, and glass.
