Made from natural wool fibers and fitted to standard 6\" backing plates, the three-pack offers a heavy-cut, medium-cut and light-cut pad so you can step through correction and refinement without swapping brands. Their washable construction and secure attachment make them compatible with most pneumatic and electric polishers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do these wool pads help remove heavy paint defects?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNatural wool fibers are stiffer and more abrasive than foam, so they shear compound into paint quickly to dissolve oxidation, heavy swirls and sanding scratches. Use the heavy-cut pad first for deep defects, then refine with lighter pads to even out the finish. Wool’s loft also holds compound for even product distribution and efficient cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNatural wool maximizes cutting speed compared to foam.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree-cut levels (heavy, medium, light) let you stage correction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHook-and-loop backing secures to 6\" backing plates for stability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHolds polishing compound to reduce splatter and thin strokes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill these pads work with my polisher and polishing products?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — SPTA wool pads are compatible with the vast majority of rotary and dual-action (DA) polishers that accept 6-inch backing plates.
