- Diameter: 80 mm
- Material: 100% natural sheep's wool (Wool)

The Honey Combination Wool Pad 80mm is a Wool Pad made from 100% natural sheep's wool with a 23mm pile length, designed for paint correction with a Rotary Polisher. The construction delivers high cut and suits deeper scratches, dullness, and oxidation that require more aggressive correction.
The pad's Anti-Soak Technology is based on a PTFE impregnation (polytetrafluoroethylene) that reduces how much Compound is absorbed into the wool. This results in lower product consumption and keeps the pad free from clogging for longer, extending the effective cutting time per pad.
A 5mm thick open-cell foam backing, Comfort Foam, dampens vibration and makes it easier to follow the bodywork's contours without losing control. See rotary polishing compounds designed for use with this pad.
What problem does the Honey Combination Wool Pad solve?
The Honey Combination Wool Pad addresses the need for high cut when correcting deep scratches and heavy oxidation, without the aggressive correction compromising control. The long, natural wool combined with the Comfort Foam cushioning showed, in testing, less tendency towards holograms and haze in the paint compared with older types of wool pads.
Where the Honey Combination Wool Pad performs best
- Correction of deep scratches in clear coat before polishing with a finer pad
- Removal of heavy oxidation on older or poorly maintained paintwork
- Restoration of dull or weathered panels ahead of a full restoration
- Reconditioning of used vehicles ahead of sale

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Does the Honey Combination Wool Pad 80mm work with a DA machine (dual action)?
No. The Honey Combination Wool Pad 80mm is designed specifically for paint correction with a Rotary Polisher, not for DA machines. The long wool and high cut are matched to the rotary motion, and a different pad is recommended when working with a DA machine.
Does the Comfort Foam layer reduce vibration when working with the Honey Combination Wool Pad?
Yes. The 5mm thick open-cell foam layer, Comfort Foam, in the Honey Combination Wool Pad reduces vibration levels and makes it easier to follow the contours and body lines of the vehicle. The cushioning improves precision in the work without limiting the pad's cut.
What sets the Honey Combination Wool Pad apart from other wool pads for rotary polishing?
The Honey Combination Wool Pad stands out through Anti-Soak Technology, a PTFE impregnation that reduces product consumption and keeps the wool free from clogging for longer than untreated wool pads. Together with the Comfort Foam cushioning, the pad showed, in testing, less tendency towards holograms and haze compared with traditional wool pads of the same type.
