Lambswool pads offer aggressive cutting ability, allowing for faster removal of sanding marks and deeper paint defects compared to foam pads.
This pad is ideal for UV paints and the latest scratch-resistant clear coats. It can be used on other paint types, but caution and technique are advised, especially on softer finishes where it can be too aggressive.
The integrated orange foam layer provides cushioning, absorbs some of the impact, and offers stiffness, ensuring consistent surface contact and better control even on curved or complex surfaces.
It is recommended to clean the pad after each use to remove compound residue and maintain its effectiveness. Deeper cleaning can be done periodically as needed.
Refer to your polisher's manual and the compound manufacturer's recommendations. Generally, start at a lower speed and increase as needed, maintaining control.
After thorough air drying, store the pad in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and chemicals. Ensure it is not compressed to maintain its shape.
Ensure the hook-and-loop surface on both the pad and the backing plate are clean and free of debris. Realign and press firmly to secure.
Check that the pad is evenly distributed on the backing plate and that you are applying consistent, moderate pressure. Ensure the surface is level and the pad is not overloaded with product.
Reduce pressure and pad speed, and ensure adequate polishing compound is used to lubricate the surface. Work in smaller sections.
This is more common during initial use. Ensure pad is properly attached and start with moderate pressure. Continue with use; shedding should decrease over time. If excessive, check for damage.
Setup:
Attach the TW-PT 80 Lambswool Polishing Pad securely to your compatible rotary or dual-action polisher. Ensure the polisher's backing plate is clean and free of debris before attachment to prevent imbalance.
Compatibility:
This 80mm pad is designed for use with polishers equipped with an 80mm backing plate. It is recommended for use with moderate to heavy cutting compounds and polishes, particularly on automotive clear coats, UV paints, and scratch-resistant finishes.
Care:
After each use, carefully remove the pad from the backing plate. Use a stiff brush or compressed air to remove excess compound and polish residue from the wool fibers. For deeper cleaning, the pad can be hand-washed with a dedicated pad cleaner and cool water, then thoroughly rinsed. Allow the pad to air dry completely on a flat surface before storing or reusing. Avoid using harsh detergents or machine washing, as this can damage the wool and foam layers.
