3M™ Finesse-it™ Foam Buffing Pad, 02362, Orange, 5-1/4 in (133 mm), Convolute, 10/Carton, 50 ea/Case

We manufacture our 3M™ Finesse-it™ Buffing Pad - Orange Foam White Loop for use with our 3M™ Finesse-it™ polishes, which are specially designed to achieve satin, semi-gloss or high gloss finishes on wood, automotive, marine, and aerospace coatings.

3M™ Finesse-it™ Buffing Pads are available in wool, felt, and foam, offering unique performance traits and benefits depending on your application needs. Wool pads are best paired with rotary-type buffing tools, as they are more aggressive and easier to control when compared to foam pads. This is thanks to their greater available cutting surface, made up of thousands of fibers that deliver fast cutting action. Wool fibers also hold the polish to provide an even distribution of material, requiring less pressure from the operator to use when taking on projects such as removing sanding scratches. Alternatively, felt and foam pads are generally less aggressive and produce a finer finish than wool pads. Developed to address the unique chemical composition of evolving paint and clear coat technologies, 3M™ Finesse-it™ Felt Buffing Pads rely on a combination of cutting and finishing to refine the surface coating and remove fine scratches, swirl marks, and surface marring. Foam buffing pads are ideal for final and extra-fine finishing steps for clear coats and for removing sand scratches or swirl marks from previous finishing steps. Foam pads also normally operate at higher RPMs than wool pads, making them suitable to use with rotary and random orbital tools. These pads are best paired with 3M™ Finesse-it™ Polishes, which help to achieve satin, semi-gloss, or high-gloss finishes on wood, automotive, marine, and aerospace coatings.
