Full Description

Lake Country Force Hybrid Foam Pads are manufactured with the state-of-the-art foam compositions. Each Lake Country Force pad has a denser composition and thicker foam to provide more control and superior cutting or polishing action. Lake Country Force Hybrid Foam Pads stand up to the rigors of machine detailing, time after time.

What makes Lake Country Force Hybrid Foam Pads different? Think of it this way: you wouldn't use a soft foam sponge to apply a polish. The abrasives would get lost in the cells. Tighter and dense foam is better to keep the abrasives in contact with the surface being polished. Lake Country Force Hybrid Foam Pads take that rationale a step farther with ultra dense foam compositions that keep the product on top of the foam, where it belongs.

The detailing world is forever evolving and advancing, much to the benefit of all of us! New types of polishing machines are being introduced, and foam pad manufacturers like Lake Country are keeping up admirably. With forced rotation polishers, like the lake-country-udos 51e 5in1 machine polisher it was found that thicker pads generally outperformed smaller, thinner pads and is more user friendly.

Lake Country Force Hybrid Foam Pads are 1.25 inches thick and feature a tapered edge design (pictured) for a totally unique compounding and polishing experience. Due to high density foam, these pads are long-wearing and maintain their shape through many uses.

Lake Country Force Hybrid Foam Pads are available in the following types of foam:

5.5 inch Lake Country Force Hybrid Grey Pad

This Force Hybrid foam pad provides the high level of cut expected from a heavy foam cutting pad, but finishes like a foam finishing pad! It removes moderate to severe paint imperfections like swirls, scratches, and marring.

5.5 inch Lake Country Force Hybrid Orange Pad

This light cutting pad features super dense construction which enables it to remove defects quickly without compressing, like softer pads can. This pad will remove light to moderate paint imperfections like swirls, scratches, and light marring.

5.5 inch Lake Country Force Hybrid White Pad

The white Force Hybrid pad features very dense foam. Use this pad to remove light imperfections, apply a light polish, cleaner wax, and any jobs for which you'd use the standard Lake Country white polishing pad.

5.5 inch Lake Country Force Hybrid Black Pad

This pad provides no mechanical cutting ability but thanks to its dense foam, it provides superior control while polishing. It features super soft foam, which makes it ideal for finishing polishes, waxes, sealants, and glazes.

5.5 inch Lake Country Force Hybrid Red Pad

This soft, Force Hybrid foam is ideal for applying the final coat of wax or sealant. The foam works especially well when applying liquid waxes or sealants because it is firm enough to keep the majority of the product on the paint, rather than soaking it up.

Designed for use with a forced rotation polisher, the Lake Country Force Hybrid Foam Pads provide more control and superior cutting and polishing action.

The backing material on each pad is 5 inch, which makes it perfect for use with a 5 inch backing plate, a 4 inch backing plate is suitable as well.

Wash Lake Country Force Hybrid Foam Pads with Wolfgang Pad Werks Polishing Pad Revitalizer and lay flat to dry with the backing material facing up. Store dry pads in sealed bags or bins to prevent contamination between uses.

The Lake Country Force Hybrid Foam Pads are like nothing you've tried before. The dense, long-wearing foam compositions maximize product performance to create a flawless finish every time.
