Expert Notes

The Chemical Guys Green Hex-Logic pad is a 4in one-step polishing pad that cuts like a heavy polishing pad and finishes down to a high gloss. Chemical Guys designed it for softer or delicate paint, where it tackles swirls, scratches, water spots and oxidation without the risk of over-cutting. The small 4in face makes it a practical choice for mirrors, pillars, bumper sections and other tight areas that a larger pad cannot reach easily. The Hex-Logic pattern spreads product evenly, and a Precision Port vent hole channels heat away from the centre. Pair it with a one-step polish or all-in-one product, a backing plate sized for a 4in pad, a pad cleaner and a wax or sealant afterwards.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Delicate paintwork
  • Swirled or oxidised paintwork
  • Door mirror caps
  • Pillars and narrow panels
  • Bumpers and valances
  • Spoilers and lips
  • Motorcycle painted panels

Caution: This pad has a light cut and removes paint. Check thin, older or repaired panels carefully and test the pad and polish on a small hidden area first.

How To Use

Using it

  1. Wash, decontaminate and dry the paint, then mask trim and rubber seals.
  2. Centre the pad on a backing plate that suits a 4in pad.
  3. Prime the pad face with a few small dots of a one-step polish.
  4. Work a small section with slow, overlapping passes and moderate pressure.
  5. Wipe off residue with a clean microfibre towel and inspect the finish.
  6. Protect the corrected paint with a wax, sealant or coating.

Cleaning and storage

  1. Brush out the pad face often so residue does not clog the pattern.
  2. Wash the pad in warm water with a pad cleaner after each session.
  3. Rinse well and squeeze out the water without twisting the foam.
  4. Dry it face down, away from radiators and direct sunlight.
  5. Store it in a sealed bag, separate from zero cut finishing pads.

Top Tip: Pair the Green pad with a one-step polish to cut and refine softer paint in a single pass.
