What is a Medium Foam Pad and why choose it?
A medium foam pad (a polishing sponge with medium-density foam) is a versatile tool that combines corrective and gloss-enhancing properties. It is firmer than a finishing pad but softer than a cutting pad, making it suitable for a broad range of polishing tasks – from light paint correction to finishing gloss work with a Polish.
The ChemicalWorkz New Foam Pad 38 mm Medium is developed to deliver consistent pressure and heat resistance during extended polishing sessions, contributing to a uniform result without risking overheating of the paintwork.

- Work on confined surfaces: around badges, air intakes, door trims, and mirror housings

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the ChemicalWorkz New Foam Pad 38 mm Medium suitable for correction prior to Ceramic Coating?
Yes, the ChemicalWorkz New Foam Pad 38 mm Medium is suitable for paint correction prior to the application of Ceramic Coating. The pad's medium-density foam helps to remove light scratches, swirls, and oxidation, providing a clean and even surface that promotes adhesion for subsequent Coating. For deeper defects, a firmer cutting pad in combination with a Compound is recommended.
What size and compatibility does the ChemicalWorkz New Foam Pad 38 mm Medium have?
The ChemicalWorkz New Foam Pad 38 mm Medium has a diameter of 38 mm and is developed for use with DA polisher and rotary polisher equipped with a 38 mm backing plate. Its compact size makes the pad particularly well suited for working on confined surfaces such as around badges, air intakes, door trims, and mirror housings where larger pads cannot reach.

What sets the ChemicalWorkz New Foam Pad 38 mm Medium apart from other pads in the same format?
The ChemicalWorkz New Foam Pad 38 mm Medium combines heat resistance with a medium-density foam construction, which distinguishes it from simpler pads that may deform during extended polishing sessions. The heat resistance contributes to more consistent pressure and a uniform result throughout the working session. Compared to a softer finishing pad, the Medium variant offers greater corrective capability, whilst remaining gentle enough to be used as a finishing gloss pad with a light Polish.
