RUPES DA Polishing Pad Blue Intermediate

The RUPES DA Polishing Pad Blue 80mm is a professional intermediate foam pad for removing light swirls, fine scratches and minor paint imperfections with a DA machine. The blue pad sits between cutting and finishing in hardness: enough abrasiveness for effective correction, yet soft enough for a glossy finish in a single step. Same consistent foam density and velcro backing as the entire BigFoot range. Available in 11 variants from 80 to 150mm in 4 hardness grades.

Why this product

• Intermediate hardness: removes light swirls, oxidation and fine scratches without a separate finishing step

• RUPES quality: consistent foam density and velcro for predictable performance per pad

How to use

1. Place 3-4 dots of polish on the pad (Per 40x40cm area.)

2. Spread at low speed (1-2) (Distribute before increasing speed. Prevents spattering.)

3. Polish at speed 3-4 with overlapping passes (Light pressure, 50% overlap, pad flat. 3-4 passes give a clear result.)

4. Wipe residue and evaluate (Clean microfibre cloth, reflective lighting. Then proceed to wax, sealant or finishing pad.)

Pair this RUPES intermediate pad with Menzerna One Step Polish 3-in-1 for efficient correction and gloss in one pass, the Liquid Elements T4200 orbital polisher for a compatible machine, Chemical Guys Pad Conditioner to keep the pad in top condition and Menzerna Super Finish SF3500 for an extra glossy final result.
