This pad did awesome. I had other pads that left fuzz everywhere. This pad was great, very little fuzz during the buffing process. I need to order more.
Very nice & good quality pad !!! but I am worried about the price I will buy again when it is reduced :)
It shed some wool initially but seemed to stop. Decent quality. I don’t think it’s up to Milwaukee standards though.
I went back to these after trying the foam pads for working boat fiberglass. I think the foam works OK for car clear finishes, but they smear and do not polish as well as these wool pads. That is just my experience.
this has the threaded part in the middle to attach to a buffer grinder. works great. double sided

Description
These 3M Wool Compounding Pads feature a special blend of wool – a natural, sustainable, fast-cutting material – and very fine fibers for remarkably smooth compounding and improved washability. Great for smoothing surfaces when they are heavily oxidized, these pads are designed to work with rubbing compound to eliminate small scratches and other defects before polishing. The single-sided buffing pads feature 3M Hookit hook-and-loop attachment – its nylon loops instantly grip the hooks on hook-and-loop back-up pads, such as 3M Hookit Back-up Pad (05717). The pad removes just as easily, making it almost effortless to change and reuse the pads on rotary buffers. These wool buffing pads are safe for all gelcoats and paints, ideal for cars, boats and personal watercraft, trucks and recreational vehicles. Use the 3M Wool Compounding Pad with 3M Perfect-It Rubbing Compound (06085), 3M Perfect-It Gelcoat Heavy Cutting Compound (36102) or 3M Perfect-It Medium Cutting Compound + Wax (36106).
I own a yacht detailing business and they are the only compounding pad we will use.
I just pulled my 1999, 35 foot Albin out of the water for a bottom paint and gel coat wax. I thought this time I would do the waxing myself. I started with my normal random orbital waxer and the typical terry applicator and polishing bonnet. HORRIBLE results. The owner of the boatyard came over and gave me one of these wool bonnets and I could not believe what a difference it made. I also used the regular terry bonnet to apply the wax. I had several people ask what I was using and that the gel coat looked like new. I ended up using two for the entire boat. When I found them at about half price on Amazon I purchased two more for the next time. I will never go back to my old style polishing bonnet. No idea what the negative review was about but may have been using too much wax or something with too much compound in it. I would buy these again for any waxing of my boat or car.
Typical great quality from 3M
Thick wool and lots of it. 3M pads are well made.
Does a fantastic job with 3M Marine rubbing compound.
