Chemical Guys, Hex-Logic Medium-Heavy Cutting Foam Pad, Orange, 5.5 inch

About this product

Most paint correction work does not need the most aggressive cutting pad in the lineup. Heavy cutting pads are the right choice for neglected car paint with years of accumulated swirl marks and deep defects, but for paint with moderate swirl marks, fine scratches, and light oxidation, the Chemical Guys Hex-Logic Medium-Heavy Cutting Pad Orange is the better starting point. This cutting foam polishing pad is sized for 5 inch backing plates on dual-action, random-orbital, and rotary polishers. This paint correction pad is a practical fit among 5 inch polishing pads used in car cleaning, and auto detailing supplies. The orange color designation sits between the yellow heavy cutting pad and the white polishing pad in the Hex-Logic lineup. As a foam cutting pad, it delivers cutting power for swirl removal and scratch removal without unnecessary aggression when defects are not severe. The Hex-Logic hex cell surface pattern distributes polishing compound or cutting compound evenly across the pad face. Pair with V36 Optical Grade Cutting Polish, then follow with the white Hex-Logic polishing pad and V38 Final Polish to refine the surface and improve gloss before wax or sealant application.
