Re: Wool, what am I missing?

When we decided to enter the wool pad business we saw the same dilema that the only pads offered were White 100% wool twisted for cutting and a Yellow Blended wool/acrylic for polishing. We then launched the first wool pad line to offer 5 colored textures and our wool matched our foam in color and texture. You want and need the ability to choose the right pad for the job without being forced to use the most abrasive pad. You actually want to start with the least abrasive combination of pad and chemical to see if you get the right results first before reaching for the more abrasive combo and removing more paint or causing damage.

Hope this little history helps.

Aaron,
Thank you. It does help

I just like to cover my bases. Do I need 5 or 6 levels of Wool and Foam every time? No.. but if I need it and I don't have it I'm in for more work or a job I cannot complete.
