Built with natural wool fibres and a hook-and-loop backing, the set fits most rotary and dual-action polishers and is machine-washable for repeated use. The pads balance cutting speed with heat management to reduce the risk of paint burn when used with the correct technique and polishing compound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do these wool pads speed up paint correction?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNatural wool has a stiffer, more open nap than foam, allowing it to remove defects faster by exposing fresh abrasive surface and moving more compound.
