Ideal for hitting problem areas. Can easily concentrate the machine on the scratch or defect your working on due to the size. Ideal for small, awkward or narrow areas, I use mine on my taigate, door tops, lower doors and front and rear valence.



When removing swirls with a pc, the extra speed you get from the smaller pads seems to give a bit more oomph and bite.



A worthy addition for any PC owner I just grabbed a few more off each this week.

I like them a lot and now have more 4" pads than 6.5" `ers.



So far, I have 6 of each pad, cut, polish and finish - but have only used the latter two. I usually bung a few more in the cart each time I buy things from here as I have not seen them for sale in the UK. The SFX pads seem well made and are holding up nicely.



The 4" finishing pad is great for AIO, CMW and EX-P etc. and I use it for the whole car as I can`t be doing with swapping backing plates halfway through to change over to the larger pads. The PC seems to work more efficiently too, as there is less weight/mass to throw around I guess.



Other people prefer the larger pads, but its what works for you in the end. Apart from that, there is not much more to say about them.

I use them on my Cyclo, and it works good for me.

You can also use them on a Wolfgang or Pinnacle Polishin` Pal. They come in handy for things that you have to do by hand.
