Interface Pads

Interface Pads are specialized polishing or sanding accessories designed to sit between the backing plate and the polishing or sanding pad. They provide cushioning and flexibility, allowing better conformity to curved or irregular surfaces and reducing the risk of over-polishing or uneven sanding. Interface pads are commonly used in automotive detailing, woodworking, and metal finishing to enhance pad performance and improve finish quality.

Applications

  • Automotive – polishing curved surfaces, removing minor defects, and swirl reduction
  • Woodworking – sanding contoured furniture or decorative pieces
  • Metalworking – polishing irregular surfaces and precision finishing
  • Marine – smoothing and polishing boat surfaces
  • Professional workshops – improving pad adaptability and finish quality

Key Advantages

  • Provides cushioning for even pressure distribution
  • Adapts to curved and irregular surfaces
  • Reduces the risk of swirl marks or sanding gouges
  • Improves pad performance and finish quality
  • Durable for repeated use
  • Compatible with multiple pad types and backing plates
