The Royal Pads Finish Pad 80 mm is a polishing pad manufactured from open cell foam, developed to deliver a mirror gloss final finish on painted vehicle surfaces. The pad is designed for use in the last stage of a polishing or detailing process, where the objective is maximum gloss without introducing new scratches or marks.
Thanks to the open cell foam, Polish is distributed evenly across the surface, contributing to a consistent and controlled result. The pad is suited for use alongside other Royal Pads products in a complete polishing system.
What is a Finish Pad and why choose it?
A Finish Pad is the softest type of polishing pad and is used in the final stage of a paint treatment. Unlike coarser pads intended for Compound or mid-stage Polish, the Finish Pad is optimised to maximise gloss and minimise friction against the paint surface.
The Royal Pads Finish Pad 80 mm in open cell foam is a durable option for detailers working with a DA polisher or rotary polisher in the 80 mm class. The open cell foam keeps heat low and prevents the Polish from drying out too quickly, providing longer working time and better control.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the Royal Pads Finish Pad 80 mm compatible with all types of DA polisher?
Yes, the Royal Pads Finish Pad 80 mm is designed for use with DA polishers and rotary polishers in the 80 mm class. Ensure that the machine's backing plate matches the 80 mm format before use. The Royal Pads Finish Pad 80 mm fits most standard machines of this size used by professional detailers.
What type of Polish is recommended with the Royal Pads Finish Pad 80 mm?
The Royal Pads Finish Pad 80 mm is optimised for thin, free-flowing finish Polish products intended for the final stage of a paint treatment. Avoid coarse Compound products with this pad, as the open cell foam is adapted for low aggression and high gloss – not for material removal.
What distinguishes the Royal Pads Finish Pad 80 mm from a standard mid-stage pad?
The Royal Pads Finish Pad 80 mm uses open cell foam with a lower density than mid-stage pads, providing softer contact with the paint surface and minimising the risk of holograms or scratches in the final stage. A mid-stage pad is intended for Polish with some cutting ability, whereas the Royal Pads Finish Pad 80 mm is developed solely to maximise gloss and prepare the surface for any subsequent Coating or Sealant application.
