7" Rotary Green Waffle Foam Cutting Pad

Medium Cutting Pad with Cooling Waffle Foam

The Buff & Shine 7-inch green waffle foam cutting pad is a medium cutting pad that sits between heavy correction and polishing, made to remove scratches, swirl marks, and oxidation as a first or second step. Green is the medium-cut grade in the Buff & Shine foam line, so it has enough bite to level defects while leaving a cleaner surface than an aggressive pad. The waffle face opens air channels that vent heat as the pad spins, which lowers the risk of overheating soft or hard clears and helps spread compound evenly to reduce micro-marring. It is a versatile correction pad for professional detailers, dealership detail departments, and enthusiasts on a rotary. Browse the full range of waffle pads to set your cut and finish steps.

It fits a standard 7-inch rotary backing plate with a hook-and-loop face. Mount it on a hook-and-loop backing plate, pair it with a medium-cut compound or polish, and follow with a finishing pad to refine the gloss.
