3M Finesse-it Knit Buffing Pads are manufactured with wool fibers knit into a polyester fabric backing for applying Finesse-it Polishes. Providing a soft, smooth, contouring surface, these pads are ideal for removing finishing abrasive sand scratches, oxidation, and other paint surface defects on automotive OEM, marine OEM, and aerospace OEM coatings. Additionally, 3M Finesse-it Knit Buffing Pads are equipped with the 3M Hookit Attachment System, which holds the pad securely during use while providing quick pad change-outs to maximize tool uptime.3M Finesse-it Buffing Pads are available in wool, felt, and foam, offering unique performance traits and benefits depending on your application needs. Wool pads are best paired with rotary-type buffing tools, as they are more aggressive and easier to control when compared to foam pads. This is thanks to their greater available cutting surface, made up of thousands of fibers that deliver fast cutting action. Wool fibers also hold the polish to provide an even distribution of material, requiring less pressure from the operator to use when taking on projects such as removing sanding scratches. Alternatively, felt and foam pads are generally less aggressive and produce a finer finish than wool pads. Developed to address the unique chemical composition of evolving paint and clear coat technologies, 3M Finesse-it Felt Buffing Pads rely on a combination of cutting and finishing to refine the surface coating and remove fine scratches, swirl marks, and surface marring. Foam buffing pads are ideal for final and extra-fine finishing steps for clear coats and for removing sand scratches or swirl marks from previous finishing steps. Foam pads also normally operate at higher RPMs than wool pads, making them suitable to use with rotary and random orbital tools. These pads are best paired with 3M Finesse-it Polishes, which help to achieve satin, semi-gloss, or high-gloss finishes on wood, automotive, marine, and aerospace coatings.
