Meguiar's Double Sided 100% Wool Cutting Pad
The Meguiar's Double Sided 100% Wool Cutting Pad offers two useable sides through the use of a center adapter system which ensures balanced, uniform results every time. Use the 8 Inch Meguiar's Double Sided 100% Wool Cutting Pad with your rotary polisher and a Double Sided Pad Rotary Adapter. To switch sides, just spin the buffing pad off the threaded adapter and flip the pad and then re-thread onto the adapter.
Meguiar's Double Sided 100% Wool Cutting Pad features 1.5-inch, four-ply twisted fibers for faster cutting and more complete removal of sanding swirls and severe paint blemishes. The twisted wool fibers are highly absorbent in order to distribute Meguiar's liquid polishes and waxes evenly.
The Meguiar's Double Sided 100% Wool Cutting Pad does not need a backing plate. Instead, the pad attaches to the polisher using the Double Sided Pad Rotary Adapter. The adapter screws into a rigid plate in the center of the pad. This plate is surrounded by a soft edge that prevents marring on contours and curves.
Because the adapter is positioned in the middle of the Meguiar's Double Sided 100% Wool Cutting Pad, vibration and wobbling are eliminated. Operator fatigue is reduced and the results on the paint are more uniform.
On the Autogeek store... note, you must have the adapter in order to use the pad.

Double-Sided Pad Rotary Adapter
This is an 8" pad but measures 9.5 " across the face of the pad. I've placed a Lake Country Single Sided pad next to it for comparison which is also an 8" pad.
Double sided means that it is a one-piece pad and both sides can be used to buff paint. In these shots below I'm flipping it over to show you both sides are working sides, there is no place to attach a backing plate as the backing plate is internal and this type of pad uses an adapter to attach it to the spindle on a rotary buffer.
The length of the wool yarn is 1.5" long
Here's I've pulled away the wool at the outside edge so you can see the internal backing plate interface in which the twisted wool is attached.
Here's the correct adapter needed to use this type of buffing pad.
Here I've pulled away the wool at the center of the pad to expose the threaded portion of the internal backing plate.
Here I'm threading in the adapter...
In this shot you can see the adapter is attached.
In this shot I've flipped the buffing pad over so you can see the threaded portion of the adapter is short on purpose so no part of the threads poke out past the threaded insert in the backing plate.
After threading the adapter into the double sided buffing pad you can then attach the adapter to the 5/8th spindle on the rotary buffer.
Press the Spindle Lock Button to lock up the gears and enable you to tighten the wool pad till it's snug.
You can also attach the adapter to the spindle on the rotary buffer first and then attach your pad to the adapter.
Caution: If you try to use the double sided wool cutting pad without the adapter you risk harming the paint.
The buffing pad will thread on to the buffer but the back of the buffing pad will be against the body of the buffer.
Also, the spindle, because it's quite a bit longer will stick out where it could possibly come into contact with the paint.
For comparison, here's a shot of the threads on the adapter and the threads on the spindle of the rotary buffer. Note how much shorter the threads on the adapter are.
