4″ Blue Foam Grip Pad for Dual Headed Polisher
Buff and Shine Mfg. is now manufacturing a full line of 4″ foam pads that fit the Cyclo dual head polisher. The quality and craftsmanship of these new pads is far superior to anything on the market. Here is why.
VELCRO TRIM – We have taken the extra step to evenly trim the Velcro loop back from the outer edge of the pad to prevent accidental contact with the paint that could cause $100s or possibly $1000s in damages.
CRAFTSMANSHIP – Our pads our consistently crisply and cleanly cut. The side walls of the pad are perfectly straight down on every pad. Check your current stock and you will find inconsistent concaved sidewalls. This is due to incorrect cutting procedures. You will find every pad will look different.
ADHESIVE – A common problem with Velcro pads is the Velcro peeling off. We are using an adhesive that will never come off ever. It is heat resistant, chemical resistant and 100% fully washable over and over again. Remember when you buy Buff and Shine products we stand behind our products with a 100% guarantee.
When used with our backing plate number 350Y you get a numerous benefits aside from safety of the no exposed sharp edge you get a flexible backing plate foam pad combo which glides over automotive body style lines with ease.

7.5″ Euro Orange Med. Cutting Hex Faced Foam Grip Pad with Center Ring Backing
Finding a simple to use self centering system has been the subject of many ideas and innovations in the reconditioning industry. The results have been scattered, until now. The benefits of finding a solution are clear: instant centering achieves vibration free buffing with less fatigue and a better result.
Our patent pending “Ring Pad” system does all this and more. Along with the centering benefit we have shaped the front of the pad with a hex design and engineered a flexible backing plate that will accept air, rotary and random orbit buffers; the hex face will help dissipate polish or compounds evenly, minimizing grabbing and reducing heat while the backing plate helps reduce pad stiffness. Each of our colored foam buffs has a measured cell structure that provides a different level of cutting or finishing. Used in conjunction with your favorite buffing medium, this is the ultimate buffing solution.

If you like the overall performance and versatility of Buff and Shines Uro-Fiber pads (with the black and white fibers), but you felt like you needed just a bit more fine-finishing capability, then you will appreciate Uro-Fiber Finisher Pads. Buff and Shine listened to the feedback from end-users of Uro-Fiber pads and engineered a new microfiber pad with a standard pile height and shorter profile that provides great finishing results, especially on softer paints.It is still possible to cut and finish with the Uro-Fiber Finisher pads, but most technicians will prefer to have the one-two punch we like to call The Uro-Fiber Twins. Start with the versatility of the Uro-Fiber pads for cutting and polishing, then bring the paint to an amazing finish with the Uro-Fiber Finisher.

5″ Flex Edge Grip Backing Plate
It’s a new buffing world out there, even for the classic simple rotary (high-speed) machine. Some technicians have transitioned to the use of thinner buffing pads, like our Micro Fiber and Low-Pro Pads. Buff and Shine’s new Thick Flexible Backing Plate is an ideal match for these and other pads. Available in three sizes for all your buffing needs. Constructed with an 1″ thick polyurethane layer, the Thick Flexible Backing Plate can offer dramatically increased flexibility that can make up for the loss of flexibility that is sometimes experienced with thin buffing pads. This allows the technician who loves the performance of thin pads to also enjoy the capability of working contours in the vehicle surface that are otherwise more difficult to reach with traditional backing plates.
You will find that the Thick Flexible Backing Plate allows superior control and distribution of pressure over body style lines. It provides virtually 100% surface contact across contours while reducing the potential for damage to protruding body style edges. The highly-beveled pad edge allows for “working into” the deepest body line recesses.
The 7″ diameter size is great for use with a traditional rotary buffer on larger open surface areas or vehicle painted panels like hoods and trunk lids. The 5″ diameter size is great for smaller panels and those with heavy contouring. The 3″ size is perfect for buffing tight areas with your favorite smaller rotary polisher (but it also works even with traditional-sized rotary buffers!). Use the 3″ size for working on headlight lens restoration.
As with all Buff and Shine backing plates, the Thick Flexible Backing Plate is constructed with the highest quality materials and designed to provide countless hours of use, even with the abuse that a rotary polisher can dish out!
