3M 7100145280 Foam Compounding Pad 9 Inches

Product Description

The 3M 7100145280 is a double-sided foam compounding pad designed to refine P1200 or finer sand scratches during automotive or industrial finishing work. The pad measures 9 inches and features a quick-connect design that locks onto compatible backing plates without tools, reducing changeover time between passes. It is intended for use with 3M compounds applied by professional detailers, body shop technicians, and surface finishing specialists who need consistent material removal and scratch refinement in a single pad.

This foam compounding pad is suited for paint correction work on automotive body panels and similar finished surfaces. The double-sided construction extends service life by allowing the technician to flip the pad when one face is spent. It is appropriate for both spot correction and full-panel passes in professional body shop and detailing environments.

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3M Compounds and the 3M Quick Release Adaptor (PN 05752). The quick-connect interface requires a compatible 3M quick-release backing plate for proper attachment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by surface finishing professionals and detailing technicians. Attach the pad to a compatible 3M quick-release backing plate before mounting on a dual-action or rotary polisher. Prime the pad with compound before the first pass to prevent dry buffing. Inspect the foam face for tears or glazing after each use and clean thoroughly before storage to maintain cutting consistency.
