3D 7.5" Black Spider-Cut Foam Finishing Pad

Maximize gloss and clarity with 3D’s spider-cut design 7.5” foam pads
Some people think foam is foam, but this is simply not true. There’s a lot of chemistry and physics that go into the design of a quality foam pad. 3D’s quality foam buffing pads use the latest in foam chemistry to create pads that simply outperform the competition.

Foam Chemistry
Different chemicals can be added to a foam formula to make foam react differently under time, heat, and pressure and exposure to liquids or chemicals. Simple, non-descript foam pads cost less and that’s because they do less. Cheap pads also don’t last as long.

Unique foam structure
Run your hand over the face of a clean, dry 3D 7.5” black spider-cut finishing pad and you’ll feel a super soft, plush foam surface. This pad is for doing final polishing work after more aggressive compounding and polishing steps. The soft foam texture provides little to no cut depending upon the product and paint.

Pad design
The slotted spider-cuts across the face of our foam finishing pad flex when spinning against the surface, this increases their surface area, which increases their finishing ability for faster refining of the surface and finishing swirl-free and show car quality.

Product trapping
The spider-cut structure flexes to open up when buffing allowing the polish powders or abrasives to migrate in-between the spider-cuts trapping them in the pad for extended work time and more efficient finishing and refining of the surface. As you’re buffing, the abrasives have greater contact against the surface for a more efficient finishing-effect.

Longer lasting
The open-cell design also offers great tensile strength as compared to closed-cell foam pads and this means they are more tear-resistant and thus last longer.

Cooler buffing temperatures
The slotted spider-cuts across the face of the pad flex as you buff allowing better air movement over and through the pad for improved heat transfer from the pad to the air. This helps keep surface temperatures lower and helps to prevent the face of the pad from bowling-in.

Excellent finishing range
3D’s 7.5” black spider-cut finishing pads are versatile because they offer very light polishing to very fine finishing simply by changing the product. To get light cutting or the ultimate flawless finish, use with 3D’s 502, 520, ONE or SPEED.
