i just got my order from autogeek with a few more pads. well the yellow cutting pads are differnt than whats described on the website page.

heres what the website says.
Yellow Cutting Foams 6.5 inch- Use this pad to apply compounds or polishes to remove severe oxidation, swirls, and scratches. It is the most aggressive and should only be used on oxidized and older finishes. Always follow this pad with an orange or white pad and a fine polish to refine the paint until it is smooth.

and heres what it says on the ones i got

yellow cutting pad

this yellow pad is designed for applying sealants and glazes. the soft absorbant foam with not scratch clear coated or single stage paint finishes. use this pad for final buffing and product removal.

so my basic question is are there 2 differnt yellow 6.5 inch CCS pads?
 
Just a mix up in product sheet is all..the yellow is a cut pad....it is for the worse of paints..lol....

i am guessing a misprint...the yellow is a cutting pad not finishing pad...

That could be scary with a yellow applying sealers and glazes:o

Glad he asked......:p
 
it seems like a really soft foam tho. its not near as hard and the orange pads i got with the order.
 
you are right...the yellow foam is much softer than the orange pad...but look at the pore size compared to the white blue or gray pad and that is what does all the cutting action...the orange pad ges its aggressiveness out of pressure and being a firm pad..the yellow does it with pore size
 
ahhh ok i was wondering about that. so this is what they are supposed to look like?

Funny.....It even says "Yellow Foam Cutting Pad" on the plastic, then says to use it to apply waxes and glazes right under it:eek: Definitely a mix up. "Cutting pad" and "Wax or Glaze" should never be used in the same sentence;)
