    Buff and Shine 5.5 Inch White Pad

    Just got my buff and shine foam pads six pack. I ordered 1 green, 2 blue, 1 black, and 2 white.
    The problem is that on the website it says the white pad is a "Buff and Shine White Foam Ultra Finishing Pads"
    However on the Package of the pad, it says it is a Heavy Polishing Pad. I bought two white thinking they were finishing pads for Paint Sealants and waxes.
    Which one is correct? And what should I do?

    Re: Buff and Shine 5.5 Inch White Pad

    I've always been under the impression the white B&S pad is a polishing pad. It's what all mine say on them too.

    Buff and Shine White Foam Polishing Pad - 5.5 Inch

    What you posted above says white foam "polishing" pad too but says in it's description it's a finishing pad for spreading LSP's, very interesting.

    Looks like maybe some correcting of descriptions may be in order? Eh?

    Good job for pointing this out

    Re: Buff and Shine 5.5 Inch White Pad

    They have two. One is a euro foam polishing pad, and the other is a high ppi (pores per inch) finishing pad (100 ppi? Not sure).

    If you don't want the polishing pads, contact the vendor, and try to correct the situation.

    It's weird how only the 5.5" super finishing pad is red, where the 4" & 6" are white. Also, the red is a euro foam, where the white isn't.....

    The picture he posted, it says it's a "foam polishing pad" then in the description says it an "ultra finishing pad", these descriptions are counter to each other.

    Their softest pad is actually a cream color. So it could be a mistake on the BandS page.

    Yeah the white pad is very soft. On the product description on the websites it claims to be a Heavy Polishing Pad but the actual product I believe might not be it. I could be wrong though but the white pad feels quite a bit softer than the other colored pads (even the green one).
