It levels down heavy imperfections faster while the foam interface adds control and cushioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan this pad be used for spot repairs or full panels?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely. Use the smaller 3” size for targeted correction in tight areas, or go with 5” or 6” for larger surfaces like doors, hoods, and roof panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWill it leave haze or micro-marring?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt may leave light haze on softer paints after heavy correction. That’s expected with any aggressive pad and is why a follow-up polish and finishing pad is recommended for optimal clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow do I extend the life of the pad?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvoid overloading it with product, keep it clean between passes, and rinse it out thoroughly after use. Let it dry face-down or hang it by the backing to maintain its shape.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e***Please note, the pads are tapered - smaller at the base (where it attaches to the backing plate) and wider at the polishing surface.
