3M 05733 Perfect It Ultrafine Polishing Pad, 8 inch

For a final seal, we use Meguiars Mirror Glaze 21 and this polishing pad. This pad uses a hook/loop (Velcro) attachment system. The combination of this ultrafine foam polishing pad with the Meguiars Mirror Glaze, leaves the finish of our car, mirror like. Very happy with this final polishing pad. After use, we thoroughly rinse the pad out when finished. The glaze is a pain to rinse out of the pad as the glaze doesnt want to rinse out of the pad. Thats not a knock on the pad or the glaze, just a comment that the glaze is stubborn about rinsing out of the pad. I let the pad air dry and when time to reuse the pad, I wet (dampen) the pad before applying fresh sealant to the pad. As long as the pad is well treated (thoroughly cleaned and rinsed of any finish scratching debris), this pad will provide you with long service. How long of service will depend on the individual as nobody wants scratches to develop in their finish due to not replacing their finishing pad. Just saying, our car has a thirteen year old, never been garaged finish so Im a bit more forgiving than one might be who has a hundred thousand dollar car thats showroom fresh. This is a beautiful product that does a killer job bringing out the final sealant finish on your paint. Agreed, a lot of effort goes into getting to this final step and I feel total comfortable recommending this product for a final finish pad.

Good price for a 3M pad highly recommended.

Pad work as expected took out my swirl

just as expected ... thank you, fast shipping and nice packing!

Great pad but a little hard to keep clean with wax build up inside the pad. Overall a very good pad!

works as expected

thanks

I like everything except the price. Its expensive. The Amazon price is competitive. 3M is simply costly.

This 3M Perfectit pad is the best tor finessing the final finish whether restoring an existing finish or perfecting a newly painted surface. The waffle pattern on the surface reduces heat buildup. The pad is quite durable, capable of being machine washed, and lasts through many uses. I used a lot of foam pads from different manufacturers but this is the best final finish pad on the market.

I bought these after using the flat foam polishing pads. These work so much better and use less polishing compound. This saves money.
