Re: best pad for 4*upp

Use the black as it will absorb less product. Do the entire car and go back to start to remove.

Re: best pad for 4*upp

the lightest finishing pad to apply any sealant or wax. You will likely waste more product that applying by hand. Remember with UPP its a very light even coat and buffs off super easy with a MF towel.

So I should go for the PC on a black pad or blue

Re: best pad for 4*upp

As said the black will not absorb as much as the blue, but the blue is softer. Because you are not correcting and applying little to no pressure it should not make a difference.

Re: best pad for 4*upp

i agree with killr. you waste too much by not applying by hand, maybe to the point of twice as much. by hand i can use about two ounces to cover my suburban and much, much more with a pc to cover.
