Cutting Pad

Price range: €8.00 through €10.00

The Cutting Pad is a highly abrasive tool designed for heavy paint correction. It effectively removes deep scratches, severe marring, and other major paint defects. This pad features a specialised open-cell foam structure that maintains its cutting power throughout the entire buffing process. The open-cell design also ensures excellent heat dispersion to protect your paint. Milled edges and a trapezoidal shape provide superior stability and prevent accidental damage to adjacent panels. This is the go-to pad for restoring the most neglected paint surfaces.

  • High Cutting Power: Specifically engineered to tackle the toughest paint imperfections and heavy oxidation.

  • Heat Management: Open-cell foam and a central hole work together to disperse heat and reduce surface tension.

  • Stable Design: The trapezoidal shape improves machine balance and stability during high-speed work.

  • Anti-Clogging: The foam structure is designed to resist compound build-up, ensuring consistent performance.

  • Material: Premium Industrial Open-Cell Foam

  • Firmness: High (Abrasive / Cutting)

  • Size Option 1: 125mm (Face) / 140mm (Velcro) / 25mm (Thickness)

  • Size Option 2: 80mm (Face) / 90mm (Velcro) / 25mm (Thickness)

  • Attachment: Reinforced high-grip Velcro

  • Centring: Use the central hole to align the pad perfectly on the backing plate to avoid vibrations.

  • Priming: Apply 4–5 drops of a heavy-cut compound to the pad to ensure even coverage.

  • Technique: Work in a small 50x50cm area using slow, overlapping passes with moderate pressure.

  • Heat Check: Regularly touch the panel to ensure it isn’t getting too hot, especially on plastic bumpers.

  • Cleaning: Clean the pad with a brush or compressed air after every section to maintain its abrasive “bite.”

  • Finishing: Always follow up with a medium or finishing pad to remove the light haze left by this heavy cutting stage.
