Critique my pad (Picture)

[Mach30SiR]

This is the results of work using OHC on a 1998 camery that hasn't been touched in its life. Used very little product and it went a long way, i was surprised. It was my first time using the PC

two washes, claying, tar bug removal but there was still tons of tar left, so i think some was left and is now on the pad.

I also attached a copy of an after picture. Is it still usable. This is slight tearing in the pad surface.


Discuss.... thanks

Wow thats a lot of dead paint that came off of that car.

Depending on the size of the tear, its still use able. Throw it in the wash.

i followed that up with RMG on a blue P2 pad, and the pad wasn't black at all. This car was a wreck.

Even - can you describe to me the limitations on a tear and reuse. I'm thinking as long as it doesn't keep tearing or shed.

Well yea, it shouldn't of been to black because you did all the correction with the other pad.

As far as the tear and reuse, it really depends. The pad looks fine for continual use, just keep a close eye on how much foam is tearing and coming off.
