One of my bigger concerns was whether or not these would stay attached to the orbital sander. The velcro they use is excellent, they are really hard to peel off. The other thing is that the different sanding roughness is very apparent in the three categories of abrasion. One of the reasons I bought this set is because it had a wool polishing pad. Haven't tried it out yet but it's meant to be used to remove wax and has almost abrasion qualities at all. I plan on using it on the front and back of my guitar which already has a very nice finish and I don't want to scratch it Read more

Used daily in a professional bodyshop. For the price they are great but just know you get what you pay for. After 2 months of daily use they are starting to break down near the velcro and the velcro is starting to lose its stickiness. Read more
These things work great! They are really easy to put on & stay on. I've done lots of buffing with all these pads & are still holding up GREAT! Read more
I tried these pads for the first time on my Lexus RX350 and they worked like a charm. Using a 5” DA hand sander which most people have in the garage it came out like a pro. The ridged edges of the pad supposedly promote a better cut without a lot of heat. I don’t know if that’s true but the pads held up great- Velcro was tight. I am theroughly please with the quality of the pad for the price- can’t beat it. Read more

Good value, pads work good. Read more
It took some time to get but it was worth the wait. I love having a variety of these pads for vehicular applications. As a DIY-er i was able to get some nice scratches out of some automotive paint with ease. If youre like me and it is your first time, be very very gentle. Do no more than 5 passes over the spot, with compound applied, and speed of your tool set to 3000 RPM, wipe with a microfiber towel AmazonBasics Microfiber Cleaning Cloth - 24 Pack and check out the results. Maybe even wait for it to fully dry. The first time i did it, i went a little too far and went though the clear coat. If after you wipe the compound the "wet look" doesn't go away, yes you went though the clear. A good rule of thumb is that if you nail catches on the scratch its too deep to buff out, but you can still work on in a little to even out the surroundings and make it less noticeable. Just dont over do it. Note: if youre using it with a rotary tool, youll need something to attach the velco to. I use this: Astro 4606 6-Inch PU Velcro Backing Pad Read more
