SPTA 3 Pack Blue T60 Moderate-Cut Foam Polishing Pads, 6.5 inch

SPTA 3 pack blue moderate-cut foam polishing pads, 6.5 inch

Moderate-cut foam pads for removing sanding marks, light oxidation and swirl marks, with a grooved design to help manage polish and heat during use.

These SPTA foam polishing pads are made for car paint correction work where you need a moderate cut rather than a heavy compound pad. The blue T60 foam is described as suitable for removing 1500/2000 grit sanding marks and medium oxidation, and it can be used with SPTA heavy cut and medium cut polishing compounds.

The pads have a grooved design that helps hold excess polish and abrasives while also improving airflow between the pad and the paint. That can help reduce heat build-up during use, which is useful when you are working through correction stages on paintwork.

What the pad is designed to do

• Helps remove sanding marks, oxidation, swirl marks and sun damage
• Suitable for compounding, polishing and waxing tasks
• Made for use with RO, DA and GA car polishers

Build and handling

• Made from high-density polyurethane sponge
• Designed with uniform pores and good air permeability
• Uses Velcro backing for quicker pad changes
• Intended to be easy to bend and work across paint contours

Points to bear in mind

• The listed sponge diameter is 6.5 inches
• The product title also refers to a 6 inch, 150mm backing plate, so it is worth checking your machine and backing plate before ordering
• Clean the pad during use if abrasive build-up becomes heavy
• After use, avoid solvents or alkaline cleaners when cleaning the pad

For anyone doing routine machine polishing on car paint, these pads sit in the middle of the correction process rather than at the very aggressive end. They are aimed at controlled paint refinement, with enough cut for visible defects but still suited to later polishing and waxing stages.
