Coussinets en laine synthétique - 7,6 cm, 12,7 cm, 15,2 cm
Product Overview
The MaxShine Synthetic Wool Cutting Pads (available in 3", 5", and 6" sizes) offer professional detailers the aggressive defect-removal power of traditional wool without the shedding, inconsistency, or extreme heat build-up associated with natural fibres. Engineered for heavy paint correction, these pads utilize a specially formulated synthetic wool blend featuring a lower pile height. This allows the pad to bite deeper into the clear coat, making short work of heavy oxidation, severe swirl marks, and deep scratches.
Designed specifically for modern high-speed Dual Action (DA) and Rotary polishers, these pads incorporate a cushioned foam interface and a center cooling cut. The foam layer absorbs the intense downward pressure generated during heavy compounding, while the scientifically designed synthetic fibres provide exceptional heat resistance and dissipation. This combination ensures maximum cutting efficiency while keeping the panel surface safe from heat-induced clear coat damage.
Key Features
-
Low-Pile Synthetic Wool: Features a short, dense synthetic pile that provides more aggressive, direct mechanical cutting action compared to long-haired natural wool, allowing for deeper and faster defect removal.
-
High Heat Resistance: The engineered synthetic fibers are scientifically designed to resist and dissipate heat far better than dense foam pads, preventing the paint from overheating during heavy compounding sessions.
-
Foam Cushion Interface: A layer of dense foam is inserted between the Velcro backing and the wool face. This provides crucial shock absorption, allowing the pad to contour safely over the vehicle's body lines and curves.
-
Center Cooling Cut: Features a precision-cut hole in the center of the pad to vent heat away from the polisher's backing plate, preventing the pad from delaminating under extreme stress.
-
Zero Shedding: Unlike natural lambswool pads that shed heavily during their first few uses (covering the shop in lint), these synthetic fibres remain intact, keeping your workspace clean.

Ideal Use Cases & Applications
-
Severe Paint Correction: The ideal "Step 1" pad for removing deep RIDS (Random Isolated Deep Scratches), heavy water spot etching, and neglected, oxidized clear coats on daily drivers.
-
Hard Clear Coats: Highly recommended for cutting through rock-hard European clear coats or modern ceramic-infused factory paints where foam cutting pads are ineffective.
-
Gelcoat & Fibreglass: An excellent choice for marine and RV detailers needing to aggressively cut oxidized gelcoat without generating the extreme friction heat of a foam pad.
Common Questions (FAQs)
Q: Is this synthetic pad more aggressive than the MaxShine natural wool pad?
A: Yes. Because the synthetic wool has a "lower pile height" (shorter fibres), it provides less cushioning from the fibres themselves. This transfers more mechanical energy directly into the paint, resulting in a deeper, more aggressive cut than fluffy natural wool.
Q: Will this pad finish out cleanly?
A: No. This is a dedicated heavy-cut pad. The aggressive synthetic fibres will quickly remove deep scratches but will leave behind micro-marring or compounding haze. It must be followed up with a foam polishing or finishing pad to restore the final high-gloss shine.
Q: How often should I clean the pad while working?
A: Because the short fibres hold onto spent compound and clear coat residue quickly, you should spur or brush the pad out after every 2x2 foot section you polish to maintain its aggressive cutting ability.
