Finishing Pad Questions

  • The last polishing stage. Paired with a fine polish, it refines the surface and removes the light haze left by cutting, so you finish with clarity and gloss rather than micro-marring.

  • A finishing pad is softer and works with fine polishes to perfect the finish. A cutting pad is firmer and works with compounds to remove defects. You often step down from cutting to finishing.

  • On darker and softer paint, yes, because cutting can leave haze. On some setups a good one-step polish and pad finishes clean enough that you skip it. Inspect under good light and decide.
