Re: NEW! DA Foam Discs and Backing Plates
A couple of techniques to keep in mind is we don't have to use as much pressure with these new pads especially when trying to remove defects, since they are much thinner. Due to this less mass of the pad you will also find they run very smooth : ) Another thing to keep in mind is pad rotation, keeping some pad rotation at all times translates to performance whether cutting or finishing.
If you want to finish polish with foam after using our D/A Microfiber Cutting Disc, in most cases it is best to use our yellow foam polishing disc, as most often times the compound step leaves the paint a bit hazy, and we need the mild cleaning ability of the yellow foam polishing disc to bring the paint back up to a high gloss. If after your compounding step the paint has little to no haze, (indicating the paint is on the harder side), you would be OK to use our black foam finishing disc, as you don't need as much cleaning or in other words "refining" ability, to get the paint to finish or to get the paint back up to a high gloss.
Hope this information was helpful.
