LC blue pad?

is a LC blue pad a step between a white and a black? i did my second polish ever, the first on my car the past weekend. my cob webs reduced alot using a LC orange with OC then OP white with a LC white pad., but i still do have some. i was wondering if i used a blue pad with OP , if it would work better incase the white pad is leaving marks. my paint is soft, Night hawk black pearl, honda. thanks

Blue Finessing Foam 6.5” – Flat pad has soft composition for applying glaze, finishing polish, sealants, and liquid waxes. Flat pad provides full contact with paint surface to minimize the pressure applied by the user.

Re: LC blue pad?

the blue pad is non abrasive- I wouldn't reccomend using it with a polish since it might not break the polish down

Re: LC blue pad?

the grey and blue pad have no cut. the white pad should not be leaving any marks behind if used correctly.

Re: LC blue pad?

It is my understanding it comes after the black pad.

The blue is actually between the black and red. You shouldn't have a problem with the white pad leaving marks.

Re: LC blue pad?

If the black, blue and red have no cut, what is the difference in using them?

Re: LC blue pad?

I thought the blue was softer than the black too....

Red is the softest

Re: LC blue pad?

I just bought the blues and said screw it lol. Unless someone can tell me the difference. I just use yellow, orange, white and blue.

Its all here in this thread. Soft (black), softer (blue), and softest (red). They are all finishing pads with NO cut at all. Mainly used for application. So basically, if you have 1 of these, you don't need the other 2.

I don't use a blue pad but a black pad works pretty good for applying glazes such as VM or RMG.
