Is it just my unit or are these pads much easier to slow rotation? I tried them out this weekend on the hood of my DD. I couldent wax it for 3 months due to a repaint, so it got waterspots and a scratch during that time.
This was my first time using MF pads, used the Lake County ones.
With a foam pad, you really have to push hard to get the rotation to slow, but with the MF pads, it didnt take much pressure at all, maybe 1/3 the force. It actually made it easier to work though.
It made quick work of the defects, the scratch was gone after 1 pass ( test pass ) @3500, the watermarks took 2 at 4500 ( did the rest of the hood like that ). Usually the foam takes 3 passes at 4500 just to remove light swirls.
I was using Wolfgang total swirl remover. I didnt need a finishing polish, paint looked showroom.
