    What is the softest, least agressive 6” finishing pad to Apply Collinite 476S Wax?

    Hoping to use my Makita PO 6000C DA to spread on the wax on a regular basis. So to preserve the clear coat, I definitely want the softest most gentle Pad with no cut.

    I could use the 3M Ultrafina Blue pad #50388

    Ideally would like something as soft (least aggressive) or softer, and not blue to avoid mixing up with my 3M finishing pads and cheaper? If possible.

    I have just seen the RUPES 150mm (6") UltraFine Finishing Pad - White. #9.BF150S. Are these as gentle as the 3M ones

    Also any recommendations most welcomed.

    Also I might consider budget pads (to use as throw away items) provided they are 100% safe.

    Lake Country Black, Red or Gold pads work great for me.

    Since I use RUPES White Finishing Pads (4”)
    to apply Waxes/Sealants with my 3” GG RO
    Polisher...I will recommend RUPES 6” White
    Finishing Pads for your Makita 6000C DA.

    The Lake Country 6.5” Blue Foam Finessing Pads are the only pads that specifically state they have “No Cut” [no cutting ability] and therefore makes them the absolute softest pads on Gods green earth.lol.



    But seriously though, these are the softest pads.. Finessing pad is so soft that I can pair it with Meguiars #7 Show Car Glaze and successfully fill/hide severe defects on clearcoat such as these that were once on my hood.



    Most people would think it’s impossible to fill these extreme defects with a glaze...



    Softest pad, no cut, all finesse.. How you like them apples. Megs #7
