Mixboser Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Hi, I look at the new White Waffle Foam Pad and the Orange Waffle Foam Pad. I can't tell the different between them. Their descriptions seem doing the same thing. Can someone explain their use and abrasiveness? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Welcome to the Optimum Forum. In terms of abrasive, the Optimum waffle pads go from Orange (most abrasive), White, Black, and Blue. The white is considered a cutting AND polishing pad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron@Optimum Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Mixboser, that was my understanding, but yesterday I saw a facebook post by Yvan saying the white pad has more cut. I'll get the determination from Dr G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 So I have the answer(s) from Dr G & Yvan: Dr G: The white pads work better on some paints and specially in hot climates since they are not affected by heat as much as the orange pads. We will update the website information so that it differentiates the two better. Yvan: The white pad is a strange animal , Iron fist in a a velvet glove if you will. With Hyper Compound it cuts more then the Orange pad. On softer paints it will finish better then even our black pad. This is why the description has it as both a cutting and polishing pad. The cell structure is different then our other waffle pads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
