The Polishing Pad: Key to Perfect Paint Surfaces

With the DP Pro Therminator polishing pad, German manufacturer Detail Passion taps into the hype of thermally stable or thermoresistant polishing pads while implementing their own ideas. The benefits of thermally stable polishing pads are clear. A consistently controllable paint or clear coat removal during the polishing process is ensured since the foam does not lose its compressive hardness due to heat exposure. This allows the pressure to be maintained even at higher RPMs, preventing any drop in cutting performance. Additionally, the cell structure is preserved, which leads to optimal cooling and minimizes compression. Based on experience with extremely fast heavy cut polishes like 3D Car Care 510 and the versatile 3D One Hybrid, Detail Passion has implemented special characteristics in the polishing foam. DP Pro Therminator white - Super Heavy Cut for severe paint defects DP Pro Therminator orange - Medium Cut for One Step, All in One, or medium-strength polishes DP Pro Therminator maroon - Medium Polish for medium polishes and finishing DP Pro Therminator black - Gloss finish for sensitive paints or extreme gloss From Super Heavy Cut to Finish: DP Pro Therminator Polishing Pads for Rotary and Random Orbital Use Unlike other polishing pads made of thermally stable foam, the composition of the DP Pro Therminators places special emphasis on cell structure and polish distribution. Despite the benefits of conventional thermopads, the cell structure can lead to uneven or no polish distribution during the initial application or spreading. Especially with medium-hard pads, this can quickly lead to unwanted dry polishing. DP Pro Therminators are optimized for large stroke random orbitals such as Rupes LHR15, ShineMate EX620, Makikato POC, and Flex XFE, producing either impressively rapid material removal or a high-gloss finish, depending on the choice. DP Pro Therminator polishing pads can be complemented with Heavy Cut polishing pads made from hybrid wool or microfiber or used as a standalone solution.

The new Intermediate polishing pads from Detail Passion are based on the well-known technology of thermally stable or thermoresistant foam. They are designed for polishing tasks in a one-step process and for correcting paint defects on softer clear coats like those from Tesla, Harley Davidson, Dodge, or Asian manufacturers. The blue thermo pads feature an extremely fine open cell foam structure and impress with an unprecedented balance between fast material removal and a very good finish. It is difficult to precisely categorize the blue Intermediate foam in the existing foam list. In many cases, the Intermediate polishing pad offers the cut of the orange foam and the finish of the very soft black foam. In tests, the Intermediate Therminator polishing pads also achieved perfect results when processing PPF paint protection films. With the DP Pro Therminator polishing pad, the German manufacturer Detail Passion has embraced the hype of so-called thermally stable or thermoresistant polishing pads while also realizing their own ideas. The advantages of thermally stable polishing pads are obvious. Continuously controllable paint or clear coat removal during the polishing process is ensured, as the foam does not lose its compressive hardness due to heat exposure. This means that even at higher rotational speeds, the pressure can be maintained, thus preventing a drop in cutting performance. Similarly, the cell structure is preserved, leading to optimal cooling and minimizing compression. Based on the experience with extremely fast heavy cut polishes like the 3D Car Care 510 and the universal 3D One Hybrid, Detail Passion has implemented special additional properties in the polishing foam.

Despite the advantages of conventional thermo pads, the cell structure can lead to uneven or no distribution of the polish during start-up or spreading. This can quickly result in unwanted dry polishing, especially with medium-hard pads. DP Pro Therminators are optimized for large orbit polishers such as Rupes LHR15, ShineMate EX620, Makita POC, Flex XFE and create, depending on the choice, an impressively fast material removal or a high-gloss finish. DP Pro Therminator polishing pads can be optionally supplemented with heavy cut polishing pads made of hybrid wool or microfiber or used alone as a comprehensive solution.

With the Collapsed Cell Structure Pads - short CCS Pads - Lake Country has revolutionized the art of uncompromising paint correction. CCS Pads are flat foam polishing pads designed for dual-action polishers and forced rotation polishers with a patented surface design. It is worth mentioning that CCS Pads are also fundamentally suitable for rotary polishers, particularly when the cutback shape creates a larger polishing area on a smaller backing plate. All CCS Pads available from the official distributor Chemical-Shark.de are produced in cutback form. Patented CCS Cell Structure Offers Numerous Advantages The surface of CCS Pads features small pockets, the interior of which has a closed cell structure via a special process, even though the foam of the polishing pad is otherwise open-pored. This characteristic allows for a much more economical use of polish with CCS Pads. The polish penetrates into the pocket but not into the polishing pad, thereby enabling a significantly longer working time. At the same time, the cell structure remains cooler, and the pad cannot dry out from the drying polish. Suitable for All Paint Types: Lake Country CCS Polishing Pads from Chemical-Shark.de Referred to as "Smart Pads" among connoisseurs, these polishing pads are suitable for all types of paint.

With Lake Country Snappy Clean Boost, polishing pads can be easily and thoroughly cleaned. This powder from the US manufacturer features a patented formula that dissolves polish residues and dirt. At the same time, Lake Country Snappy Clean Boost reactivates the cell or fiber structure of the pads. Although this cleaner is specifically designed for Lake Country pads, it also works excellently with Flex, Sonax, Koch Chemie, Meguiars, and other polishing pads. Deep Cleaning for Polishing Pads for Longevity of Microfiber, Foam, and Wool Pads Citrus-based cleaning powder for polishing pads Patented formula for cleaning and reactivating the cell or fiber structure of polishing pads Designed for Lake Country polishing pads, also ideal for all other polishing discs Deep cleaning of polishing pads ensures long life 100% biodegradable

The high-quality foam combined with a dual-layer system makes the HDO pads from Lake Country Manufacturing stand out. The two different properties of the foams combine the benefits of thin and thick pads. The light gray layer reduces lateral or horizontal movement, thus decreasing friction heat, which can quickly become problematic with powerful orbital and forced rotation polishers. The polishing foam itself, marked by different hardness and abrasiveness, is naturally resistant to heat and material fatigue. Nevertheless, the dual-layer concept provides even more consistent polishing results than the cheaper SDO pads, which lack the cooling and torsion-free layer. Top-Level Pressure Distribution and Design: Lake Country HDO Pads From 130mm, the Lake Country HDO pads feature a heat-dissipating center chamber with a cooling hole for enhanced cooling and precise positioning. While the Lake Country HDO pads are 30-40% more expensive than the newer SDO pads, the price difference is justified, especially when using forced rotation machines like the Flex XCE 10-8 or the Rupes LK900e Mille. Lake Country foams are also resilient and easier to clean when using newer high-performance polishes like Rupes D-A Coarse Compound, Sonax Ultimate Cut 6-3, and Sonax CutMax abrasive paste. Optimized for Consistent Polishing Performance and High Durability: Lake Country HDO at Chemical-Shark.de The high-quality foam of the SDO and HDO polishing pads ensures consistent polishing performance and high durability. Even with high stroke and oscillation speeds, as with the Rupes LHR21e Mark III, the pads remain stable and run smoothly. The HDO Pads are Available in 3 Different Foam Options Blue: Designed for maximum cut, scratch, swirl, and oxidation removal. Perfect for quick paint defect corrections Orange: Medium cut, removes medium paint defects with good finishing Black: Black finishing, very soft foam for high-gloss polishes and for applying and processing waxes and sealants Lake Country HDO Pads are Available in All Sizes: Hook-and-loop backing, polishing surface: 80/90mm, 130/140mm, 150/165mm Thickness of pad: 22mm Foam: Cutting blue, medium cut orange, finishing black What Makes Lake Country Foam Pads Unique?

With the new HDO CCS Pads, industry leader Lake Country combines two of its best technologies for top-notch polishing work. HDO Pads have long set an unmatched benchmark in the industry due to their resilient foams, heat dissipation, and pressure consistency. HDO stands for "Heavy Duty Orbital", indicating that this technology is predominantly designed for modern dual-action and forced-rotation polishers. Another key technology supplied by Lake Country is CCS, which stands for Collapsed Cell Structure. The surface of CCS pads features small pocketed areas, where the interior exhibits a closed cell structure, even though the pad foam is otherwise open-pored. This allows for more efficient polish usage, as the polish penetrates the pocket but does not saturate the pad, enabling a longer working time. Simultaneously, the cell structure benefits from better cooling, preventing the pad from drying out due to polish residues. With the new HDO CCS Pads, both technologies are available in a single pad series. The US manufacturer surprises the market, as the production cost of these pads is at the same price level as regular HDO pads. Optimal Pressure Distribution and Design: Lake Country HDO CCS Pads From 130mm, Lake Country HDO CCS Pads are equipped with a heat-dissipating middle chamber, featuring a cut-out for further cooling and precise positioning. Although Lake Country HDO CCS Pads are 30-40% more expensive than the newer Lake Country SDO Pads, the price difference is justified when used with forced-rotation polishers like the Flex XCE 10-8 or the Rupes LK900e Mille. Lake Country foams are also resistant and easier to clean when using newer high-performance polishes such as 3D ACA-XTRA 510 or 3D One Hybrid.
