The ADBL Foam Pad R-Hard Cut is an 85/100 mm diamond-shaped foam pad manufactured from high-density foam and designed for demanding paint correction. The pad comes with a quick-release attachment and is compatible with DA polishers and rotary polishers with the corresponding spindle size.

Thanks to its hard foam composition and diamond-patterned surface, the pad promotes efficient heat dissipation and even distribution of compound during use. It has been developed to tackle deeper scratches, oxidation, and severe paint discolouration.

The quick-release attachment allows the pad to be mounted and removed from the polisher with ease, saving time in professional environments where multiple pads are used in succession.

What is the ADBL R-Hard Cut Foam Pad and why choose it?

The ADBL R-Hard Cut is a hard foam pad intended for the first stage of a paint correction process – that is, when compound is used to remove deeper defects from the paint surface. The high-density foam gives the pad sufficient firmness to maximise cutting ability without losing control of the pressure applied to the paint.

The diamond pattern on the foam surface is engineered to reduce heat build-up and improve the distribution of polish, contributing to a more even and predictable result. For detailers and bodyshop reconditioning centres working on multiple vehicles daily, this is a reliable and cost-effective pad for compound work.

How does the ADBL R-Hard Cut Foam Pad differ from softer ADBL pads?

The ADBL Foam Pad R-Hard Cut 85/100 mm Diamond Shape is manufactured from a harder high-density foam compared to the softer finish pads in ADBL's range. The hard foam composition delivers greater cutting ability and is intended for compound work, whilst softer pads are used for polish and final finishing. The diamond pattern is also engineered to reduce heat build-up, which is an advantage during intensive work in professional environments.
