Overview
Wool fibers do the cutting on this double-sided compounding pad, which runs on a rotary buffer with rubbing compound to remove clearcoat scratches and heavy oxidation.
Wool cuts fast and runs cooler than foam, which helps on heat-sensitive parts, and the double-sided pad gives two working faces. It needs a rotary tool and a separate adaptor, and the finish it leaves calls for follow-up polishing.
Who it's for
Detailers and owners of cars, trucks, boats and RVs with a rotary buffer and rubbing compound get a fast-cutting pad for heavy correction. Beginners, dual-action users and light swirl removal call for a gentler foam pad.
Pros and cons
- Fast cut on oxidation
- Removes sand scratches
- Runs cooler than foam
- Works on cars, boats, RVs
- Needs a rotary buffer
- Adaptor sold separately
- Aggressive for light defects
Performance notes
Wool fibers cut quickly because the pile bites into the paint, and the pad glides across the surface in a controlled motion without jumping, per the description. Wool remains cooler than foam, so heat-sensitive parts are less at risk. Rubbing compound and rotary speed set how aggressive the correction is.
