Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

I use this pad with my harbor freight da polisher and it seems to do its job just fine. The velcro backing is very strong, no issues with it becoming detached from the pad. This as a finishing pad works 10/10.

Even if it's a bit pricey, these work very well. Would purchase again.

Spreads wax evenly with very little effort. The porous surface prevents heat buildup.

Used on a van and a little acura. Works perfectly for buffing my cars on my 6 da orbital buffer. Got this to polish a 2021 tesla m3 to prep for ceramic coating.

Cons

The foam pad and the microfiber pad from meguiars has disappeared me. The back renders the pad useless. Hexlogic pads are higher quality and will last longer than this pad.

Tore on first use, very delicate. Detached after 15 min. Already been through one disc in two months after only three uses at 3800rpm. They soak up all the wax, turning it into a wax blob.

Vibration with the griot’s pad was a lot and kind of fatiguing on speed setting of 4-5.

Price

I noticed a review stating that harbor freight had the same product for half the cost, the price was tempting so i purchased 6 ... Read More

Packaging/appearance

I thought they were a bit pricey but it says you can wash an reuse.

Competitiveness

I have a meguiars da polisher and when using meguiars polish with this pad, the results are amazing.

I only use meguiars pads, foam for finishing and fiber for cutting.

Very frustrating so i paid more money for the meguiar’s brand that work well.

I exclusively use meguiar's products for detailing and finish care.
