Rupes Medium Yellow Wool Pad 145mm/ 5.75 (Single)

Good

I was really looking forward to using this on my car. When I opened the package there was something gummy on the pad. The foam and wool are not equal. You can see in the photo how the right side is off the foam and the left side is short.

This pad for the most part is my favorite pad to use with a one step like HD Speed. Pros: You can really save a lot of time with this pad. Polished out VERY well Like a Foam Pad. Cuts as well as microfiber pads but much easier to keep clean which allows you to use less pads on a car. Combines the positives of foam and microfiber in one pad. Arm movement can be much faster than a microfiber and foam pad which will save time. Feels like using a Rotary without the negatives of a rotary such as burning paint and holograms. More fun to correct paint with this pad and is 99% frustration free. Cons: Slightly grabby if running DA over 4,000 rpm. Harder too see actual paint when using than a Foam pad.

Found these to work just awesomely with my Rupes polisher. Pads have held up and been washed, reused many times. Based on my experiences so far I would recommend giving them a try. Gave a real nice finish which is what I was hoping for!

This is a great wool polishing pad. Can be paired with a more aggressive compound and remove defects very well. Also finishes down great. Can be used with rotary and with a da. Love these pads

These pads are awesome! Really great pad for medium scratches and finishes very well.

Cuts like microfiber, finishes like a medium foam pad. I use it with a 1 step. Update: 1/17/20 Now has a new lower price! 5 stars!!!

Keep going and going and going and going.

I like the durability of the wool pad. However, the sponge they used for cushioning is horrible. It do not last long at all. If you have to use it for longer than an hour you will see it starts to peel and crack.

I like using these pads with the blue and yellow rupes compound mixed. Will remove 2500 to 3000 scratches quickly. Spend more time polishing if you want deeper scratches out. I hit the deeper ones with a mini wool pad and orbital buff after. Finish off with white foam rupes pad with the yellow and the white mixed for final finish. I use 3 pads per car. Wash them after use and clean with tool while using them. Thats how I roll... Ford Collision 30 years and Ceramic and paint correction for extra cash!
