The foam face pattern increases surface contact to hold more compound and reduce sling, making it suitable for denibbing, refining sanding marks, and finishing work at lower rotary speeds.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this pad improve polishing efficiency?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe patterned foam face increases the pad’s contact area so polish stays where it’s needed instead of throwing off the tool.
