POLISHING
Use the Sandwox polishing system for optimal performance every time. Unique formulas quickly remove scratches and other surface defects. Additional wet time with these products allow technicians to use less material and easy clean up helps reduce process time. Sandwox polishing pads are designed to provide you optimal performance when used with our polishing system. Eliminate swirl marks on painted surfaces, even on difficult dark colored cars.
Why our foam pad is great?
Cheap foam buffing pads don’t last long because the foam tears-up or bowls inward when exposed to high temperatures from heavy compounding.
Our foam pads use advanced foam chemistry where the foam is modified and tuned for specific functions like durability, heat and chemical resistance, sustained cell wall structure under extreme work loads for more uniform cutting performance from start to finish.
- Our highest-performing foam cutting pads
- Fits our hook & loop back-up pads
- Diamond-cut design offers increased surface area for maximum polishing performance.
- Diamond-cut design keep cooler than conventional flat pads
- Designed for removing swirls, scratches, oxidation, and water spots or refining the results from an aggressive compounding process to maximize gloss and clarity.
- Diamond-cut design holds polishes onto pad surface for maximum polishing efficiency.

When do you use it?
Typically foam polishing pads are the workhorse of the paint correction industry. When doing multiple step paint correction, a polishing pad is used as the second step after a more aggressive step, for example after the compounding step when removing sanding marks or after the compounding step when detailing severely neglected car. Our orange polishing foam pad is also perfect for doing one-step correction with 3D SPEED. This polishing pad is also a perfect match when using 3D ONE.
Professional Technique Tips
Switch to fresh, clean dry pads often While foam buffing pads can offer excellent cutting, polishing and finish compared to fiber pads, it is the nature of foam to absorb liquids. This means as you’re working around a car, each time you add fresh product to the pad and then buff – a portion of the liquid in the product you’re using migrates to the inside of the foam pad. Within a few panels, the pad will become wet or saturated with product. This means it will also become heavier then when it was clean and dry. When buffing with any tool and foam pads, you will work faster and more efficiently if you switch to a clean, dry foam pad often. For example, buff two panels, say the roof and the trunk lid and then switch to a clean dry pad before moving onto the hood. Same for the vertical sides. Buff a front fender and a door and the switch to a fresh, clean, dry pad. Not only will you work faster because dry foam is more effective than wet foam, but your results will be better and more consistent from panel to panel and as a bonus – your pads will last longer over time.
