wool pads

[jamores23]

im looking for some good wool pads for my rotary, Could you achieve the same result with a less aggressive pad but with multiple passes? I just want to be able to compound and remove defects quicker . any suggestions on what are some good wool pads?

i heard richy mention something about tuff buff wool pads but i have yet to try them myself. im in the same boat as you so im interested in hearing the replies

yeah im tired of having to compound 2-3 times over one spot using my DA with megs mf and 105, it is a great combo but sometimes wont get all the rids out on one pass.

I just did my motorhome with an Edge blue wool. Only used one side. It just barely got to the red indicators. So the other side is still new. It got some tough treatment too. It got cleaned with a spur tool almost every new section. I'm pleased, and won't hesitate to buy more of these. Only downside is you better pay attention to what you go under. The top of the pad will be wool too and if it catches it will move you over a foot or two.

That sounds like the voice of experience ...

that must have sucked!

[jamores23]

what do you mean go under, like compounding under the rear view mirror on the door ? or go over?

Exactly, anything that your moving toward from below like mirror; luggage rack; etc. I got it from an awning bracket.

I have 4 different wool pads I use. Here they are listed in terms of aggressiveness from least to most:
1) purple foamed wool
2) Megs burg wool
3) 3M white wool
4) Tuf Buff black wool

The 3M and TB are pretty close to one another in terms of aggressiveness. The thing with wool (normally) is that it's messy. It makes your car and area look like you've had fornicating sheep. LOL. The breakthrough is with the TB wool pads. They don't shed. That makes the cleanup a lot easier and they still cut like an ex-wife's words. Hope that helps.

I use Tuff Buff wool pads as well, they are my go too for sure. I agree they dont shed, cut well and actually finish down pretty well. I rarely use my megs solo wool pads. They shed and make your car, well Richy you put it best, like sheep just fornicated in your garage and on your car.
