I tried the wool pad with a long throw 22”. It left holograms. Not many but yes, It left some. I used HD Speed as a AIO. All in all, it is a great pad. Fast results and less stress to the body. Love it. Thank you Scott for the insight. Had to polish out with a orange foam pad on the spots in question with mirror like results.
I was literally *just* going to buy this pad today but I was unsure if it was going to be able to efficiently remove 2000 grit sanding scratches. You're always right there for us, Scott.
I bought a 12 Pack of 6 yellow-med and 6 blue-coarse for $145 from Auto Detailing Solutions and absolutely love these pads. Like you said they work with all kinds of machines and polishes, even though I started out only using them with my Rupes Mille, I've found them to be very versatile.
I bought some of these pads last year after seeing this video and finally got round to using them. I used with an AIO, in my case the new Turtle Wax Ceramic Polish, and got amazing results. I was just aiming for an enhancement as the paint was pretty decent anyway on my car, but I got better than I was expecting correcting and real boost to the gloss levels. Thanks for the tip even if it is a tear late!
It's great seeing you all excited! I never used a wool pad on a d.a. I have used Meguiars xtra cut thin foam pad, took out 2000 grit marks. Can't wait to see what the rupes is capable of!
Jesse James, which Rupes are you using? I’ve been using their LHR19E and so far I love it. Way better then throwing a DeWalt I assure you! I’m just now getting into the da world so I have a couple of them but keep going back to my rotary’s
Hey Scott! Thank you for taking the time to give us your unbiased opinions about products, You really help us newbies tremendously. I was watching the video and thinking hey wouldn’t that be cool if you had your own pad line? Quality would be awesome and many would support it! You did it with the microfiber towels! 😃🙌🏽
I had to stop and grab a part one day and came across a Griot microfiber -red pad and the griot 1 step and I thought I’d give them a go... couldn’t be more impressed by them.. blown away lol... I kind of act like Scott with the results lol..
For this years spring clean on my car I was just going to use an AIO rather than a polish and after seeing this have ordered some of these pads to try. I reckon I’ll get great one step results.
Scott i love ypu this video is one of those.i asked for....THANKS........THANKS....greatings from Athens Greece....we celebratingtoday in mu country the sacrifice of dozens of dead students against the dictatorship at 1977 ..........i hope never such think happent to you country.....much love
Thanks Scott! Just wondering, you did a complete "pad" video a while back and you said you would talk to us later about Scholls/3M spider pads because you use them in specific circumstances. Just wondering about spider pads Scott, and as usual THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME AND DEDICATION! Much love.
How funny. Following your recommendation last year, I’ve done a few one step enhancements on my cars with this pad and an AIO. Works great like you said. Looks like Rupes took notice too and brought out their own AIO product Uno which they recommend is used with the yellow wool pad!
these wool pads are way better than foam, i love them, they work so mush faster, can polish out with them using a cutting compound like meguiars 105. , so much cooler surface temperatures. i even use the P & S detailing brand knock off (rupes are the originals) wool pads at $15 ea and they work just as well. scott try the P & S brand. im using this product on new paint, im a hot rod painter and restoration, i sprayed 5 coats of clear and wet sand 1000, 1500, 2000, 3000 grit then meguiars 105 cutting compound and im done! of course with these awesome new school wool pads, so easy to clean as well
It´s easy to get carried away ;) How many of theese pads would you use on a car? Is there a difference in how you work wool pads over an entire car if you compare to foam pads?
I just ordered one of these to use on my truck which is white lol and has some fairly deep clear coat "cracks". I know I wont get all the defects out but excited to see how much I can improve it with the better cutting ability of a wool pad
Hey Scott! Question, would you recommend the coarse blue pads for BMW paint? or Yellow would suffice? Heard the paint is relatively hard. Maybe even a combo of 4-6 pads of each?
Ive used this pad before its graet but im haveing trouble taking the sprider webing and some water makers off my car im using a 2 in 1 3D product doesn't seem to wrk wht do u suggest i us
Would this work with the Flex 3401 vrg? Im having a hard time deciding on what pads are best for it. Always great information and thanks for helping people with everything you do.
It works great with the 3401. I like the Lake Country Hybrid Blue pads for the 3401. They discontinued them but you might be able to find some at autogeek for about $4 each. You will also need the 4 inch backing plate for the 3401 also at autogeek on sale for about $20. If you want to stick with the standard 5.5 inch backing plate just go for some 6.5 inch pads and you will be set.
BPSDetailing thanks for the response. Witch backing plate are you using the lake country or the flex? The lake country got bad reviews about breaking. Also what other pads have you tried
Yes the Rupes Medium finishes down with polish better than any other wool pad I have used. You could do the whole car with one pad if you are cleaning it after each section pass. I would rather use several pads lightly than one pad heavily though because it will make all of the pads last longer.
Scott has a bunch of great videos on the best pads to use for each job. I just posted a video on my channel about the pads I use and why I use them also. Hope that helps!
Like he always says dnt over think it.. I've been using wool and rotary a long time and still do.. Never liked foam cutting padd.. They are a headache.. With the tools out now its getting easier and easier.. Put the tool in a babies hand and they can do a professional paint correction.. Exaggerating of course
Makita makes great tools. The newer 5000C DA they have is amazing because it is a forced rotation and free spinning DA in one tool. I would definitely get one if I didn't already have several polishers.
I dropped the cash for the Makita and love it - it’s not long throw when in DA mode, but is super comfortable to use and quiet. - I keep a HF DA with a 3” handy for the tight spots
Hi, Scott. Have you use scholl concepts s20 black all in one polish.? If yes how was your experience with it? In india there are not many companies what makes polishes and compound. But we have scholl concepts importer. So i wanna know about its products and how it perform.
Dear sir.....The scholl s20 is one step product that means that can cut and also polish very nice in one step. The product witch Mr.Scott uses in this video it is all in one, that means can clean+polish+leave wax behind. Scholl's all in one product is the A15, from the basic scholl line , or the E all in one cut and shien product from Scholl's Ecofix product line.
@@vanditm6021 it is a very nice product the performance looks like griots correction cream in USA, and like sonax ex 04-06...it cuts and polishes very well as one step.......i dont know what costs in us. But as one step for daily driver has good results
I only see a lot of the 6 inch i have the same griots polisher u using in the video i want to change the backling for a 5inch i want to start buying 5 inch pads better but thank u will keep searching around
@@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343 I'm going to have to get this pad and play around with it! Scott thank you for taking the time to give us such great info! Cheers
Microfiber sometimes depending on the paint can pick up deeper defects but microfiber is more stressful on the paint.. Rupes wool pad keeps paint cooler and that's important
Unfortunatelly nine of those AIO are availiable in europe. Have you ever used menzerna 3-1, britemax AIO, scholl A15....e.t.c??? ....or it doesnt matter?? Any good quality AIO can do the job???
Hello sir can i ask you, he uses just.a cleaner wax, those swirls sould be removed with this product??? Or maybe.needed a.more agreesive product to remove those swirls???? Thanks
I was just going after the 2500 sanding marks quickly.. The deep swirls on the paint will require more sanding or slower arm speeds and aggressive compound.. This wool pad can get them but that's not using a cleaner wax.. This is a junk yard hood and going after those deep swirls could remove too much clear coat for a daily driver.. Hopefully your paint doesn't look like this trashed hood:)

I agree, that is a great wool pad!
i love wool pads, i use a rotary loll! Hey Scott !! Give Your Kubota a little shining Love will ya!! ;-)- thanx again for great video!
YOU ARE THE MAN !!!!!!!!!!!!!
great video again buddy. u should try LC pre washed low lint wool pads. been using them 4 a year love them.b well
Was that a yeehaw?
How does the drive compare to the so ax perfect finish in your opinion
When using the Rupes wool pad with an AIO, will you need to go back with foam pad or the wool pad alone is all you need?
Hey Scott!
Question, would you recommend the coarse blue pads for BMW paint? or Yellow would suffice? Heard the paint is relatively hard.
Maybe even a combo of 4-6 pads of each?
Excellent.
I really want this wool pad now. Fine for beginners?
Yes..
I think I said that in the video.
Forgive me if I forgot to mention that
How often do you end up cleaning the pad?
Scott do you think it is good to use like a firm toothbrush or brush to clean the pad? It is effective and save for the life of the pad?
A soft brush is fine
Dallas Paint Correction & Auto Detailing thanks!
Great videos. Where can I purchase the seamless towels? Thanks
Can you use this with Menzerna 3800 before ceramic coating?
What about maintenance of the wool pads?
Just clean them like foam or microfiber pads
Hey Scott what you think about the rupes milla wool pad
Are you going to come out with your own polishing and correcting foam pads???
No..
Many great pads out there.
I will only create a product if I can make it better vs things we are using now
What do you clean it with between passes ?
Can you provide a link to the air blaster you mentioned?
What do you yall think about this rupes pad on a rotary for a one step or one and a half??? 3D Speed
I'm still not sold on a wool pad on a da. In my opinion nothing beats the rotary 2 step compound and polish with the right wool pads.
Can I use it with meguiars mt320 polish machine and hd speed all in one please mate
Can it be cleaned like a foam pad?
Ive used this pad before its graet but im haveing trouble taking the sprider webing and some water makers off my car im using a 2 in 1 3D product doesn't seem to wrk wht do u suggest i us
Forgive me if my question is silly, can any other med cut wool pad and AIO have the same result. Any idea?
Sure..but this wool pad with its fibers was designed for a dual action polisher
Would this work with the Flex 3401 vrg? Im having a hard time deciding on what pads are best for it. Always great information and thanks for helping people with everything you do.

Thank for your response, I appreciate it. I’ve never used a wool pad and will have to try it out.
You need your own line of pads. I need it simplified. I'm going to do my first corection in a month on my 2012 black Civic.

I thought that pad just worked with forced rotation or long throw. That is awesome!
Are you selling towels
Were can i buy this for my mark 3 15 mm throw
You had me giggling too!
Scott is this more aggressive then MEG microfiber cutting disk?
No, it is less aggressive but stays much cooler and finishes down much better.
Hey Scott, another fan here from California. Newbie in detailing world. What are your thoughts for Makita DA polisher and hydrosilex spray sealant??

Where do I get them scott?
You got it right tfs buddy
Can you clean this with a can of compressed air like how I clean my camera lenses. Dustoff is the product name but their are generic brands.
Not really and too expensive. Just hit it with a brush if you don't have air.
Have you used the lake country wool pads?
Yes..
They are good but I like the rupes better
I gonna get it right now
Hey Scott how would it come out with rupes forced rotation. Mille
Works great with mille as well
SCOTT, I GOT A SMALL ORBITAL SANDER ( 5”) MILWAUKEE ( is the one that have VELCRO) . CAN I USE IT LIKE THE ONE YOU HAVE IN THE VIDEO ?
I think it would work but I believe your polisher is a really small throw..
You may not get the same results:(

BROTHER IT MAKES MY DAY WHEN I SEE PEOPLE HAPPY LIKE YOU . THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME , YOU ARE THE BEST YOU TUBE DETAILER EVER . 😄🏎🚙🚗🚐🚛🚚.
“Just blow it out and go on” meaning I can use just one pad for a vehicle?

Nice da
i can see you having a detail training school
What's that beautiful white car in the back? Lexus what?
Can you use this pad on a rotary also?
Dark Man No. They’re specific to orbital polishers.
And gear driven.
you go Little bit too fast, little slower and you get better results 👍
You mean start using wool AGAIN. Not really new
So whats the step after you have cut your paint ? Do you use another pad or ?
