The ADBL Medium Foam pad is a medium-density foam pad developed for use with DA polishers (Dual Action). The pad suits a broad range of polishing tasks – from correcting minor surface defects to enhancing paintwork with Polish.
The diamond pattern on the pad surface contributes to more even heat distribution and increased efficiency during polishing. The Velcro quick-release system makes it straightforward to mount and change the pad without tools, saving time in professional settings.
The Velcro diameter is slightly larger than the backing plate diameter, providing a stable and secure grip throughout the entire work session. See more ADBL pads in our range to find the right density for your application.
What is a Medium Foam Pad and why choose it?
A Medium Foam pad sits between a soft finishing pad and a hard cutting pad. It is suited to situations where more correction capability is needed than a pure finishing pad offers, but without the aggression of a hard Compound pad. ADBL's version combines this with a diamond-patterned surface that helps distribute Polish evenly and reduces the risk of overheating.
The pad is compatible with all types of Polish and Compound, making it a versatile choice for detailers working with varying paint conditions and different vehicle types.
