SPTA 3-Piece 5.5-inch Blue T60 Moderate-Cut Foam Polishing Pads

SPTA 3-piece 5.5-inch blue T60 foam polishing pads

A 3-pack of 5.5-inch foam polishing pads for moderate cutting, polishing and waxing on compatible car polishers.

These SPTA foam polishing pads are designed for moderate-cut correction work on a 125mm backing plate setup. The 5.5-inch sponge size and hook-and-loop backing make them straightforward to fit and replace during detailing jobs.

The blue T60 pad is aimed at removing sanding marks from 1500/2000 grit discs and tackling medium oxidation. It is also listed for use with heavy-cut and medium-cut polishing compounds, so it suits the stage where you are moving from correction into refining the finish.

Why the pad design matters

• The grooved face helps hold excess polish and abrasives.
• Airflow through the pad is intended to help reduce heat build-up while working.
• The high-density polyurethane sponge is described as flexible, breathable and durable.
• Hook-and-loop backing makes pad changes quicker on the machine.

Typical detailing uses

• Removing swirl marks, oxidation and light sanding marks
• Polishing painted surfaces before waxing
• General car care work where a moderate-cut foam pad is needed
• Use on cars, boats, glass and similar surfaces, where appropriate

Care and use notes

Clean the pad when abrasive build-up becomes heavy, and clean it again after use. The listing advises against using solvents or alkaline cleaners when washing the pad.

The set contains three pads, which is useful if you like to swap pads during a job or keep one in reserve.
