The RUPES 9.DA180M D-A Fine Finishing Foam Pad is a highly versatile polishing pad designed for moderate to fine defect removal, paint refinement and high-gloss finishing on most automotive paint systems. It offers an effective balance between corrective performance and finishing quality, making it suitable for professional detailing and paint correction.
Its high-performance yellow foam is engineered to work with both random orbital and gear-driven dual action polishers. This expanded compatibility allows detailers to use the pad across different polishing systems while maintaining smooth, consistent performance.
When paired with RUPES D-A Fine High Performance Fine Polishing Compound, the 9.DA180M is ideal for removing moderate to fine defects, refining paint after heavier compounding stages and achieving a smooth, high-gloss finish.
Model 9.DA180M features a 150 mm backing surface, a maximum pad diameter of 180 mm and a height of 25 mm. RUPES specifies it for use with all dual action polishers, making it especially suitable for efficiently polishing larger automotive panels.
