Buff and Shine Giveaway for July

I personally like MF pads and these seem to fix at least one problem I have with them and that is the larger interface material. The other is the clarity which if these fix I will use them as my 1st choice. Right now I use MF for compounding/heavy polishing and foam for finishing. If these finish as well as foam they will be my pad of choice.

I would gladly give an honest review of these compared to foam. I would love to find them as good or better than foam as far as clarity goes.

I have ordered a Bigfoot MK2 with a 5" bp which will be here Thurs and have to compare that with my Torq 22D and could try these pads on both. I could try them on my GG6 also but only have 6" and 3.5" bp for that.
 
Please count me in. Around 80% of the pads I use are from Buff and Shine. I have mostly foam B&S pads so I'd like to give these MF ones a try. I get a lot of neglected cars, and have a hazy black truck coming in a couple weeks.
Thanks for the consideration.

It seems that the MF pads cut better and faster than foam pads. Would you say that this is your experience? I am still new to polishing and im finding that on my black DD, I am just now recently getting good correction with enormous amounts of pressure and more passes and rounds of compounding. Everything I hear points to the idea that MF pads can help achieve a better cut
 
I would be interested in doing a review and a full write up on the micofiber pads. I have a full schedule the rest of the month with a wide range of cars and trucks. from daily drivers to classics.

As I have finally discovered that MF pads are just about the only way I can correct the clear coat on my Dodge Durango, I would both welcome, and appreciate the opportunity. Count me in!
 
I'd like to try them out as well. I've used the Meg's ones in the past when they first came out and although they worked well, they didn't last too long before separating from the backing. Would love to have some that hold up.
 
Congrats guys! Someone test these things out and write a review. I am eager to hear, been thinking about this for a week..lol

I'm def excited cause I use a rotary and have been told that a MF doesn't have enough cut compared to wool but then I've also read otherwise. If I can get close to the same results without such a dusty mess from a wool pad then count me in!!
 
Just a teaser mini review, before we head down to Florida.

Some observations on these pads.

Their material is unbelievably plush, thick, and dense. They are very sturdy, very well made, very precise in fit and finish.

I used the 6" finishing pad on a first gen PC 7424, with Meguiar's M205 on our rental car with a bunch of water spots, and light swirls.

I primed them in a similar fashion the how Todd Helme demonstrated how to prime Rupes mf pads. I only need speed 4.5 and had no problems with rotation. I only used enough pressure to keep the pad on the paint, just like I do with a Rupes.

These pads were kind of "rocky" at first, but once the polish was spread out, and I started polishing, these pads had a beautiful, floating feel, while having a good degree of "dig" - if that makes any sense. Easily cleaned out with a pad conditioning brush, which was beautiful, because part of why I tend to stick to foam is because I'm not set up with compressed air. These pads almost behave like a foam pad. I only needed to reload with two or three small drops of product depending on the size of the section I was working on... They left a crystal clear, glossy finish with the M205.

I have to admit to being completely blown away by their perfoance, and deeply saddened that I don't have more of these. Seriouly, I've used Rupes, Meguiar's, and Lake Country microfiber pads. While I really enjoyed using them all, these were the most distinctive, with their own unique user experience.

Buff and Shine foam pads are the staple of my rig, and have been for three years now. These microfiber pads will soon be added to the arsenal.

I will order more when we get back, and do a really swirled out car with that first gen PC 7424, as well as a review with some of the pics I took today.
 
Thank you to Buff n Shine!! I've got a pretty hammered Black F-250 Super Crew and a black Accord to test these on. Nice to get back from vacation and find out this kind of news. Hopefully I'll be able to do at least one of these vehicles before our last vacation of the summer.
 
The Pad Man kindly sent me the orange cutting and black finishing MF pads when I was selected for the Uro-Tec giveaway.

I have a black Nissan Titan coming in August 6th for paint correction. I will give them a run and write up a review.
