LC rotary ultra fiber pads questions

[Chito]

Hi, just got my ultra-fiber pads and tried on my car. I noticed that the microfibers were falling off. is this normal for a first time useage? Also, can I use it to apply wax? Or since its made of microfiber, can I use it to buff off LSPs?

how much fiber is falling ? can u take a picture?
if its too much then it should be returned

i dont think they can be used for buffing off wax because u will be using a high speed polisher which means u will buff off wax really fast and this way u could potentially scratch the finish

plus those microfiber pads are made for better correction than foam pads
this means they could be more stiff than a regular microfiber towel

if u really want to try to buff off wax with microfiber pads try a small section and check with light and eraser or IPA to see if u put any scratches

and usually when u buff off wax u have to slap the towel against your hand every panel or 2 just to make sure there is no dust on the towel

if u want to buff off wax u can use a DA polisher with a microfiber bonnet and set the DA on speed 2 or 3 without any pressure

Shedding is perfectly normal for a brand new pad.

Microfiber pads are designed for serious paint correction such as swirls, scratches, water spots, etc. They are not designed for applying waxes or buffing off waxes.
