Using a wool buffing pad — shop-floor notes for buyers who write instructions
These notes are for importers writing care cards or Amazon bullets. They are not a substitute for the polisher manual.
- Match pad diameter to the backing plate. Do not run a small pad on a much larger plate.
- Prime the face with the compound you will sell or specify. Dry wool grabs and marks.
- Start on a cooler panel; wool can build heat faster than foam on rotary.
- Clean the face when loaded. Caked compound cuts unevenly and sheds more.
- Do not mix a finishing compound on a pad that still holds heavy cut residue.
For construction and QC tests, use the wholesale wool pad guide. SKUs: wool-foam, single-sided, double-sided.
