Buffing Pads!
MOST buffer/polishers that are well suited for buffing will use a 7 or 8 inch buffing pad, and your buffing pad should be 100% wool.
Cost: ALL Wool buffing pads (7 or 8 inch) typically cost less then $10.00 and will last for MANY buffing’s. Mine have lasted for (literally) for years
WHY 100% wool ???
A 100% wool buffing pad will dispel the heat that buffing can create.
How do I attach the buffing pad to the buffer?
The attachment is made with VELCRO. The back of the pad has the Female side of the velcro, and the disk on the buffer is the Male side.
Synthetic buffing pad won’t disperse heat, and that heat build up can “BURN” (melt) the Gelcoat, or paint.
Can I use a FOAM buffing Pad?
I’m just sure about that. I’ve buffed out a LOT of boat hulls, and I’ve always used a 100% woll buffing pad. 100% wool has ALWAYS worked well for me, and others so…. If it aint broke, don’t fix it.
When a wool buffing pad gets saturated with (more then you want) compound, I just hose if off, then put it back on to the buffer and in about 30 seconds SPINN it dry.
