3M 7000000580 Lambswool Bonnet Pad 5.25 in Hook Loop

Product Description

The 3M 7000000580 is a lambswool bonnet pad designed for use with rotary and orbital polishers in surface finishing and paint correction applications. Measuring 5.25 inches in diameter with a 25/32-inch pile depth, this pad attaches via a hook-and-loop backing for quick mounting and removal. The natural lambswool construction holds compounds and polishes effectively, delivering consistent cut and finish across automotive, marine, and general-purpose painted surfaces. At just 0.07 pounds, it is lightweight enough for extended use without adding significant load to the polisher head. Installation and swap-out require no tools.

This bonnet pad fits 5.25-inch hook-and-loop backing plates commonly found on dual-action and rotary polishers used in automotive detailing, fleet maintenance, and paint restoration work. It is suited for professional detailers, body shop technicians, and trade professionals performing surface prep or finish work. The lambswool pile is appropriate for applying and working cutting compounds on clear coat or single-stage paint systems.
