Automotive glass is significantly harder than vehicle paint, so the foam pads on your cart do not have the bite or the heat tolerance to correct it. Rayon does. These pads power through stubborn water spots, mineral deposits, and marks that survive every chemical you throw at them, restoring clarity to windshields and side glass. They come in 3 inch (75mm) and 5 inch (125mm), each sold in a 3-pack, with hook and loop backing that mounts to a standard \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/snsautosupply.com\/collections\/backing-plates\" title=\"Backing plates\"\u003ebacking plate\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/snsautosupply.com\/collections\/backing-plates\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.

Foam pads designed for clear coat do not have the cutting ability or heat tolerance to correct glass, so you need a rayon pad paired with a dedicated glass polish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat speed should I run?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a rotary, 1,000 to 1,500 RPM. On a dual action, 3,000 to 4,500 OPM. Staying in those ranges keeps the cut effective without generating excessive heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I really need to keep the glass wet?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, always. Glass builds heat quickly under a spinning pad, and overheating can distort or crack the panel.
