3M 7100322227 Buffing Pad Hook Loop 3.25 Inch Orange Foam

Product Description

The 3M 7100322227 is an orange foam buffing pad with a hook-and-loop attachment system designed for final and extra-fine finishing steps on automotive OEM clear coats, lacquered wood, gelcoat, powder coat, and similar coated surfaces. Measuring 3.25 inches in diameter and sold individually, this closed-cell foam pad works in conjunction with compatible polishes to remove fine sand scratches, swirl marks, and surface marring. The hook-and-loop backing allows fast mounting and removal from a compatible backup disc pad used on rotary or random orbital tools. Foam construction is less aggressive than wool pads and generally operates at higher RPMs.

This pad is suited for automotive body technicians, marine refinishers, aerospace coating professionals, and industrial finishing trades performing final polish steps on OEM and baked refinish paints. It is designed for use with Finesse-it polishes formulated to achieve satin, semi-gloss, or high-gloss finishes. The pad can also be used within the Finesse-it Trizact Paint Repair System for OEM paint and clear coat applications. It is compatible with both rotary and random orbital polishing tools when paired with a hook-and-loop backup disc pad sold separately.
