Good to Know

What is a buffing pad used for? These pads are generally used for light to moderate paint correction and are capable of removing light swirls, scratches and oxidation. They can also be used for applying polishes and cleaner waxes.

What is the difference between buffing and polishing pads? The main difference is the level of abrasion used. Buffing is more aggressive and uses an abrasive compound to clear away marks and scratches, while polishing is less intense and uses a smoother abrasive to create a shiny, reflective surface. For a complete set covering every stage, see our Set of 4 Classic OCF Pads.

How often should you change buffing pads? If you buff the car just once or twice a year, you can use your pads for two to three years.
