We Say
One of the main reasons why the SCHOLL Concepts brand stands out in the world of automotive polishing is because their people think differently. Good looks and novelty marketing features are not sought out when their products are designed. Rather, optimum functionality and intelligent details that add value to the end-user are the primary objectives, and this philosophy is extended to all of the products in the range. This is not surprising, because a core SCHOLL Concepts belief is that the best results are only obtained when polishes and pads, like the components in a blueprinted engine or a precision watch, are meticulously designed to work together to enhance each other's performance. Only then do you get the best finish in the shortest possible time. Consequently, the SCHOLL Concepts Premium Finishing Pad is made from a closed cell foam that is optimised for use with SCHOLL Concepts finishing polishes, and features a curved profile that maximises safety when working in tight spots. It is a minimalist design that works extremely well.

Description
The SCHOLL Concepts Premium Finishing Pad is manufactured in a state of the art production facility in Remseck, Germany, and is designed specifically for refining modern paint finishes. The non-reticulated nature of the foam it uses means it has a closed cell structure, which helps to prevent the polish from soaking into the pad. As a result, the bulk of the polish is held where it is needed most, i.e. between the surface of the pad and the panel being polished. This maximises the cutting action of the polish and reduces product wastage. Regardless of your level of experience, you will find the SCHOLL Concepts Premium Finishing Pad easy to use; although it is quite firm and dense it is still flexible, meaning it conforms to curved surfaces with ease. The SCHOLL Concepts Premium Finishing Pad also features a high quality hook and loop backing, which is set back a few millimetres from the edge of the pad for safety and complete peace of mind. The SCHOLL Concepts Premium Finishing Pad is currently available in three different sizes.

How To Use
General usage notes: (i) always select the least aggressive pad you think you will need to achieve the desired result, and step up one grade at a time if more cut is required (ii) always ensure that you centre each pad properly on the backing plate (this can take several attempts to get right, but is vital if the machine is to remain perfectly balanced during use); (iii) always use an appropriate sized pad for the backing plate you are using (the pad should always protrude past the edge of the backing plate, never the other way around); (iv) always prime a new pad by loading it with 2-6 pea-sized drops of product (depending on pad size) and running it stationary on the paint for 30 seconds at low speed; (v) always ensure that spent polish residue on the face of the pad is brushed off regularly during use using a PB Utility Brush (failure to follow this advice can lead to micromarring of the finish, so don't be lazy!); (vi) after use, soak each pad in a bucket of PB Snappy Clean Boost solution for 15 minutes and then rinse under fresh running water (using your fingertips to massage out any remaining polish residue) and allow to dry naturally, and; (vii) while not in use, store in a dry, dust-free environment (lidded plastic storage boxes are ideal in this respect).
