The Royal U-Thin Uni Finish polishing pad in 80/90mm delivers an even, controlled finish during the final stage of paint correction. The open cell structure dissipates heat effectively and keeps the surface cool even during longer polishing sessions.
The low profile provides better power transfer from the machine to the paintwork, reducing the risk of micro-marring and increasing precision during the work. The pad works with both DA polishers (Dual Action) and rotary polishers, making it flexible for different stages of the job. See more polishing pads in our range.
The foam is easy to keep clean, making the pad suitable for both quick maintenance sessions and longer professional polishing jobs.

The low profile and open cell structure make it suitable for both quick maintenance jobs and more time-consuming polishing sessions without the pad overheating.
Since the pad fits both DA polishers and rotary polishers, it can be used across different workflows, from straightforward maintenance polishing to more extensive reconditioning work.
Is the Royal Pads polishing pad suited to DA polishers and rotary polishers?
Yes, the polishing pad is designed to work with both Dual Action (DA) polishers and rotary polishers. The open cell structure spreads heat evenly regardless of machine type, helping to maintain a stable working temperature throughout the polishing process and deliver a more predictable finish.
