Collection: Polishing Pads

OPTiX buffing / polishing pads are tried and tested by trade professionals. What do trade professional vehicle detailers want? Ok well there are 2 types of trade, there are professional car detailers that are all about the brand name over the function, practicality nor price, most newbs will buy on brand because they really only have what they see by the bigger brands due to their ability to spend massive amounts of money in marketing to get the product everywhere. Then there is the trade or professional detailer that are concerned about the cost because they know at the end of the day if you have to buff hard and spend a lot of time on the polisher you are going to go through pads. They also know it's all about having a good system too.

Professionals want a pad that is versatile, meaning it can cut well and finish better which speeds up time. They want pads that last, but unfortunately cutting pads don't last because cutting pads are normally much more rigid/brittle and they amount of force on the pad during cutting stages are extremely punishing.  DA polishers are the reason for the massive spike in buffing pad sales. DA polishers punish pads between 3 to 10 times more than a rotary polisher. This buffing cars with hard paint and or have deep scratches means the pads get punish and easily blow out. Some will require over 3 cutting pads for the one car.

OPTiX pads offer all the things that a professional will need except for the big global brand name.

OPTiX offers high end performance at a.

The OPTiX S-line pads are a slimmer design, making it more cost effective and reduces the blow out commonly found with thicker pads regardless of the brand name, the pads will go soft due to heat or blow out from excessive heat which disintegrates part of the internal foam making the inside hollow.

Paying more does not result in more durability and this is another great advantage of buying OPTiX. OPTiX polishing and buffing S-line pads provide a better feel on any machine due to the lighter pad which creates a better balance. The flatter design allows better stability with less roll a bit like firmer suspension in a vehicle allows better stability.

Excess foam edging mean more protection around the backing plate, and allows users to get into better details or edges with easier precision.
