What is a Medium Polishing Pad and why choose it?

A medium polishing pad sits between an aggressive compound pad and a soft finish pad. It is used when the paintwork requires more correction than a finish pad can achieve, but does not demand the maximum aggressiveness of a coarse compound pad. The Royal Pads OF (Open Foam) is developed to handle this stage with precision and control.

The open cell structure (OF – Open Foam) differs from closed cell in that it allows air to circulate through the material. This keeps the pad cooler during longer polishing sequences and contributes to a more even distribution of Polish against the paint surface, resulting in a more consistent finish.
