3M Finesse-it Premium Foam Buffing Pads

At 3M, we understand the ever-changing chemical composition of paint and clear coat technologies. That's why we developed our line of foam pads specifically to address these unique challenges. Our 3M Finesse-it Premium Foam Buffing Pads are designed to last longer between changes compared to our 3M Finesse-it Advanced Foam Pads, while still delivering consistent and repeatable finishes every time.

These premium foam buffing pads are perfect for final and extra-fine finishing steps on clearcoats. They are also highly effective in removing sand scratches or swirl marks from previous finishing steps. With a variety of formulations available, our Finesse-it Premium Foam Buffing Pad range offers different levels of aggression to suit your specific needs.

Choose from two surface options: the convolute face option, which provides sufficient contact surface without excess heat build-up, or the flat face option, which ensures 100% contact for maximum cut and smooth-running operation.

To achieve optimal results, we recommend pairing our Finesse-it Premium Foam Buffing Pads with 3M Finesse-it Polishes. This combination is perfect for achieving satin, semi-gloss, or high-gloss OEM finishes on various surfaces, including wood, automotive, marine, and aerospace coatings.
