Microfiber cutting pads

[precisionmobile85]

Im looking at some microfiber compounding pads. Anyone have luck with them? How do they compare to a wool compounding pad?

[Joe@NextLevelDetail]

Yes, Microfiber cutting pads are extremely affective when paired with a da polisher.

Pair a long throw with a microfiber cutting pad, and you will see excellent cutting results with no rotary holograms.

Check out this thread i did on a black zr1

I used the boss microfiber cutting pads, and autogeek carrys them. They are bulletproof, cut excellent and get the job done.

What machine are you using ?

On a DA they work better than wool, the more longer the throw the better they work. On a Rotary, wool works best.

I'm still using a rotary buffer but I'm in the market for a da. I've been doing some research and I think I'm ready to make the switch for most of my buffing work. So in the meantime is it not a good idea to use with the Rotary?

Nope, don't bother until you get a DA. The mechanical action of a rotary doesn't work in harmony with MF pads.

I'd agree with both comments above.


I'm not fan of MF pads on DA polishers but that' just me. I prefer foam. If I need to cut heavy I'll use a wool pad on a rotary or a wool pad on a FLEX 3401 or an Orange Hybrid pad on a FLEX 3401.

Get in, get the job done. Get out.

Why aren't you a fan of MF pads on a DA?

[andy2485]

MF make for a much cleaner process. foam pads,especially cutting pads, can be a mess.

I'm waiting for my g21 griots . In the mean time I try a MD pad on my gg6 and wow!

The Megs MF system couldn't be easier for those with the older DA polishers.
