Although this pad INITIALLY feels rigid, it becomes very pliable as it warms & saturates with buffing liquid.<br/><br/>This buffing pad features a large pore, thick-wall design. The "open cell" structure of the 9.BF180H keeps it clog-free longer than traditional foam cutting pads. However, it may sling or splatter if too much compound is used.  To control sling, do not intentionally saturate or use an excess quantity of compound with this pad. This pad does not require (nor benefit from) priming of the pad.<br/><br/>The 9.BF180H is a SUPER PAD for compounding duties, as it is common to see diminutive-diameter pads saturate quickly with buffing liquid and paint residue (and this pad WILL NOT remain loaded for an extended period of time).<br/><br/>Actual dimensions:<br/>(Velcro: 5-1/8" | 130mm) • (Pad Face: 5-7/8" | 149mm)<br/><br/>The Rupes 9.DA150B 5" TEAL Intermediate Foam Pad is designated as being an all-purpose pad.  Its performance characteristics are in line with a typical foam cutting pad... but it is more than capable of leaving a very nice finish. As such, only minimal follow-up polishing is required to achieve a high-caliber finish.<br/><br/>Actual dimensions:<br/>(Velcro: 5-1/8" | 130mm) • (Pad Face: 5-7/8" | 149mm)<br/><br/>The Rupes 9.BF150M 5" YELLOW Fine Foam Pad is designated as being a MEDIUM or FINE POLISHING pad. For general polishing duties, this buffing pad is TOUGH to BEAT. The 9.BF180M is UNEQUALED in versatility of use, and can be paired with heavy-cut compounds OR finesse-grade polishes.<br/><br/>In larger diameters, Rupes YELLOW foam buffing pads are WORLD RENOWNED.<br/>This pad should be a staple in your pad arsenal.<br/><br/>Actual dimensions:<br/>(Velcro: 5-1/8" | 130mm) • (Pad Face: 5-7/8" | 149mm)<br/><br/>The Rupes 9.BF150S 5" WHITE Ultra-Fine Foam Pad is designated as being a SOFT or ULTRA-FINE FINISHING pad. This buffing pad is VERY soft and pliable, making it the perfect choice for use on difficult-to-finish paint types, or for use on super-contoured panel shapes.<br/><br/>Potentially a bit grippy (compared to the other Rupes Foam Pads), this can be counteracted by decreasing pressure, or adding a bit of machine speed or arm speed (to assist in decrease pad drag). It sometimes helps to use in conjunction with micro-spritzes of water.<br/><br/>Actual dimensions:<br/>(Velcro: 5-1/8" | 130mm) • (Pad Face: 5-7/8" | 149mm)<br/><br/>The Rupes 9.BW150H 5" Blue Coarse Wool Polishing Pad features a diverse string length & density combination designed to deliver fast cutting action, without the heavy scouring typically associated with heavy-cut wool pads.<br/><br/>Available in 1-inch, 2-inch, 3-inch, 5-inch, and 6-inch diameters. BIGFOOT.<br/><br/>Actual dimensions:<br/>(Velcro: 5-1/8" | 130mm) • (Pad Face: 5-3/4" | 146mm) • (String Length: 3/8" | 9.5mm)<br/><br/>The Rupes 9.BW150M 5" Yellow Medium Wool Polishing Pad features highly refined, non-twisted wool strings. The term "non-twisted" refers to the fact that the wool strings are NOT braided together to form a thicker, rope-like string.<br/><br/>This pad delivers a smooth feel during polishing. The plushness and length of its wool strings enable the 9.BW150M to work efficiently on super-contoured areas.<br/><br/>Available in 1-inch, 2-inch, 3-inch, 5-inch, and 6-inch diameters. BIGFOOT.<br/><br/>Actual dimensions:<br/>(Velcro: 5-1/8" | 130mm) • (Pad Face: 5-3/4" | 146mm) • (String Length: 1/2" | 12.7mm)<br/><br/><br/><br/>9.MF130H<br/><br/>The Rupes 5" Extreme-Cut Microfiber Pad features a straight-cut edge, allowing it to deliver consistent cut across the entire diameter of the pad.<br/><br/><br/><br/>9.MF130M<br/><br/>The Rupes 5" Fine Microfiber Pad features a straight-cut edge, allowing it to deliver consistent cut across the entire diameter of the pad.<br/><br/><br/><br/>9.MF130S<br/><br/>The Rupes 5" Ultra-Fine Microfiber Pad features a straight-cut edge, allowing it to deliver consistent cut across the entire diameter of the pad.<br/><br/>Rupes Buffing Liquids. All three liquids are free of heavy oils & fillers, making them ideal for use in preparation of surfaces that will be protected via cross-linking sealants, polymers, and coatings.<br/><br/>9.DACOARSE250 | 9.DACOARSE<br/>D-A Coarse is designed to deliver rapid defect removal. Although D-A Coarse is an extremely capable cutter, state of the art technology and untold hours of testing and adjusting this formula enable D-A Coarse to oftentimes deliver a visually perfect finish.<br/><br/>9.DAPOLISH250 | 9.DAPOLISH<br/>D-A Polish is likely to be the go-to liquid for the majority of polishing situations. It’s been designed, tested, and tweaked to deliver everything professionals & enthusiasts desire: the potential to cut rapidly, yet finish beautifully; short or long buffing cycles; ease of use; fail-safe performance.<br/><br/>9.PURE250 | 9.PURE<br/>UNO Pure is likely to become the world standard for finessing swirls, haziness, tick marks, and other imperfections that are often created when attempting to perfect finicky paint types.<br/>The Rupes Embroidered BigFoot Big Bag Tool Case is a BEHEMOTH of a bag! It's built like a tank,and can carry a surprising amount of weight. "One of my bags weighed in at 64 pounds!"
