Pads and Backing Plates
Using dirty and tattered pads can reduce the effectiveness of your detailing efforts. Stock up on some new buffing pads (4" and 6.5") to get the most out of your detailing efforts. We also have the backing plates (3.5" and 6") for the PC 7424, PC 7424XP and rotary buffers.

Purple foamed wool pads are the most aggressive pad we offer. These are typically used on rotary buffers, but can also be used on a dual action buffer or random orbital. What makes them so effective on a rotary buffer is that it offers lots of cutting power with less risk of damaging the clear coat. Because of the air between the wool fibers, the paint remains cooler at high speeds, compared to a foam pad with similar cutting ability. This is often the choice of professional detailers when using a compound or medium cutting polish. We always recommend following up with finer polish and pad combinations to achieve maximum results when using a purple foamed wool pad.

Yellow cutting pads are the densest foam pad, making them the most aggressive in terms of cutting ability. The yellow cutting pads are commonly used for heavy correction using a compound on neglected vehicles. Yellow cutting pads are often used instead of a purple foamed wool pads when looking for maximum cut on a random orbital or dual action buffer. We always recommend following up with finer polish and pad combinations to achieve maximum results when using yellow cutting pads.

Orange light cutting pads are one of the work horse pads for many professional detailers. They are most commonly used to apply medium cutting polishes and do a very good job removing swirls, scratches and other imperfections in the paint. We always recommend following up with a finer pad, such as a white polishing pad or black finishing pad whenever using an orange pad.

Green very light cutting pads are becoming more and more popular, especially with the advancements in polishes. They are typically used to apply medium cutting polishes or finishing polishes, when imperfections are not too deep. Green pads are unique in the sense that you can get good correction out of them, but you also have the potential to finish down nicely. If you decide you want even more depth and gloss, we recommend following up the green pad with a black finishing pad.

The white polishing pad is one of our most versatile polishing pads. It is commonly used to apply medium cutting polishes, finishing polishes, and chemical polishes. White pads have the ability to finish down nicely without the need of a finer pad, however, you may opt for a finer pad to get the maximum depth and gloss.

Black finishing pads are commonly used to get increased depth and gloss with a finishing polish. They are also used to apply all in one products, paintwork cleansers, glazes, sealants, and liquid waxes. Very versatile pad that should be in any detailers arsenal.

Blue finessing pads are our softest and most porous pad. They are commonly used to apply last step products as they have virtually no bite to them. Blue pads are sometimes used to burnish the paint with the finest polish, such as Menzerna PO85RD, to bring out the maximum depth and gloss.

Applicators and Accessories
Also don't forget about some of the other great products made by Lake Country!

The Blue Grout Sponge and Red Ulti-Mit will help you wash your paint safely and these mitts are very durable. The surface of these washing tools are cross cut to create a grid like shape which helps prevent you from grinding in contaminants that cause swirls. We highly recommend these mitts to anyone who wants to wash safely and quickly! Snappy Clean is a highly effective and safe method to clean your pads so they stay working great for years to come. Red Foam Applicator Pad is one of the safest and most effective products out there to use for the hand application of any polish, glaze, sealant or wax. It's very durable, thick and reusable.

If you need any recommendations of what pads will work best for you please let me know. Thank you for reading!

Cheers,

George
