3.5" Backing Plates and 4" Spot Repair Pads on DA Polishers


Here's what the 3.5" backing plates look like mounted to DA Polishers with 4" pads, including CCS, Hydro-Tech and Surbuf and also I've included what the 3" Griot's Polishing Pad looks like for size comparison using the adapter and the rotary buffer backing plate to attach to a DA Polisher.



Pictured are the PC, GG and Megs DA style polishers... (Love this new cart)



Here you can see how these backing plates are a safer option...

From an elevated point of view...





I have not used the small pad like you see above on a DA extensively, so I fired up one of the polishers with with the backing plate and pad you see above on the left and buzzed the polisher up to the 6.0 Speed Setting and it works fine but because the pad is so small the polisher is "tippy" so be sure to hold it carefully.
