SPTA Heavy Cut Polishing Pads, 3 Pack, 5.5 inch, Green

SPTA green heavy-cut pads with a 5.5-inch foam face

The selected UK listing identifies three green T120 heavy-cut pads and a 5.5-inch sponge diameter. That measurement describes the foam face, not a 5.5-inch backing plate.

The combined listing title mentions both 125mm and 150mm backing plates across the range. Do not interpret that as proof that this selected pack fits both. Confirm the attachment diameter and permitted plate size for the 5.5-inch variant before buying.

Choose it for its stated cutting role

The seller positions this variant for heavy-cut compound work and specifically highlights rotary use. Its broad marketing copy also mentions waxing and finishing, but that does not make a heavy-cut pad the right choice for a final gloss pass. Match the pad to your compound, machine mode and paint condition.

• Pack: three green foam pads.
• Selected face size: 5.5 inches.
• Construction: grooved polyurethane foam with hook-and-loop backing.
• Stated grade: T120 heavy cut for this selected range; colour codes are not universal.

Grooves are described as helping manage residue and airflow. They do not eliminate heat or make aggressive correction safe for every defect. Begin with a suitable small test section and avoid chasing deep damage.

Check fit and keep the pad clean

See the SPTA face-size and backing-plate guide to understand the two measurements. Confirm this pack's fit separately rather than transferring another variant's dimensions.

The listing advises cleaning accumulated abrasive during work and cleaning the pads after use without solvents or alkaline cleaners. Follow the specific pad and compound instructions.
