I just got two I'm hand wash them, see how is goes not trying to go broke 😅

Of course I just received 2 of them and lo and behold, 25 degree weather in November. I can't wait to use them!

I just paired the harbor freight 2in polisher with the uro fiber pad for my Dad and he loved it buffing out a bumper he just painted! Thanks for your great work and recommendations!

I also use these pads...they are great! Durable as well.

I'm using it on Makita[switchable DA] forced rotation and noted a lot of jumping and intuitively adopted a sort of angle as you say you did with rotary. On DA setting it calmed down a lot but the orbits of pad slowed dramatically. I was very impressed with it paired with perfect finish from Sonax. Literally have spent cumulative 1 hour of polishing in my life but high quality tools make it easy, though I have a lot to learn.

Thanks for your review, as always. I am finding that keeping the weight off the DA is even more important with these pads. I wind up just keeping my hand underneath to cradle it allows for more cut than even the weight resting on top. I am pleasantly surprised at the polish aspect and find that often there is no haze that requires a 2nd step.

Which would you recommend for a hobbyist. thinking for ease of cleaning and ease of use. Thanks!!

Hi Brian If I were to use this with Carpro fixer or HD speed what tips can you recommend. I have an entry level dual action polisher similar to the Porter cable u have in USA Clear coat is medium hardness

How would you clean these out after each section without compressed air?

Can I use these pads with a rotary polisher? Someone got me one for my birthday.

Great video. Would that paint now be ready to apply a wax or sealant? Do you use or do anything special to clean those pads?

u can actually do 1 step with right polish and polisher? made 4 hard clear i take it?

Hi Brian been looking at these uro fibre 50/50 pads but they say not to be used on a rotary... your advice and thoughts ?? Thanks in advance awesome video as usual 😎😎

I need to switch to those pads. My foam hex pads get torn up.

How do you usually clean microfiber and foam pads after compounding a whole car? Thank you in advance

Wow. These would save a lot of work!!!!!!!!!1

Would the uro tec micro fiber blended pad be overly aggressive for a high end car with some very light swirl marks? Would it be better to only use the uro tec micro fiber pad designated for final polishing? Thank you.

Brian would this pad be better to use with a lighter compound like PA master compound to remove a coating vs lake country cutting mf - my thinking being there’d be less marring to chase with a finishing polish

is this pad a good idea for a beginner who would like to do a paint correction, or is it to aggressive for that?

Bryan, how would you rate the uro 50/50,as a stronger cut vs lake country hybrib wool pads. Differences and strengths, please.JP IN SD

What polisher is the one you used on the bumper? I’d love to get one of those for the narrower parts like the pillars

You said 15mm throw with the torq 10fx... Isn't it 8mm? (Your first demo)

that 10 2 15 degree angle is the same 4 wool?

Think I’m going to pick this up with the 3D one

Last year was my 1st time polishing my white gti & I wish I knew about that pad then 😒

How would these work with the flex 3401?

I will be using 3” and 5” pads, aproximidly how many pads are needed to polish an entire vehicle? My car is small, I have a 370z.

Can you help me understand why you started at a 10 to 15 degree angle before placing the pad flush? Is that something that should be done with this pad only or all MF pads?

Will these pads remove wet sanding marks? 3000 grit? 1500 grit?

LC micro fiber pads vs buff & shine uro pads?? Opinion!?

Curious how you feel about these 6 years later? Are you still using them? Has any pad replaced them as your favorite? Do you tend to use these as an all-in-one step, or usually follow up with a finer polish/pad combo?

Music ... tangerine dream !... From the 70s ..I'd forgotten all about that album . I had it on cassette .

Hey Brian i have been using the buff&shine uro fiber 50/50 pads using 3D one with way better results than i ever expected from a one step. I was wondering if you have ever tried Shinemate's one step microfiber pad? I usually look you up for reviews of things and when i was using 3D #500 and #520 for a two step i was having good luck with Shinemates foam diamond pads both their cutting and polishing ones and they lasted a long long time so i was considering their one step microfiber pad.

are they good for 1 step ?

Can you use these with the variable speed polisher porter-cable?

I know it’s an older video, but what compound were you using here? I’m assuming it was a cutting compound and not just a polish, yes?

Question for anybody that maintains these pads. I used a small bit of tide cold water and diluted it heavily with water to clean out the pads after a correction. I know microfiber doesn't like those detergents that have dyes and perfumes added. Are my pads going to be effective after that? I guess I could wash them again using IPA, Dawn and APC this time. Anybody know if I'm just overthinking it? Will I still get the same performance after I do the second clean? Thanks

@BRITTGYPSY

2 жыл бұрын

I think Brian uses cold water tide. I wet them and generously apply Dawn, then agitate gently with a stiff brush. I soak them overnight in hot water. I then wash them in hot water in the washing machine with a free and clear detergent. They come out real nice for me. They’ve held up well after a dozen or so washes and show little wear. I use 4 to 6 six pads during a detail depending on the size of the vehicle. Good luck!

I’ll certainly be ordering these soon! Was there no need for a 2nd step after those corrections you just made? If so, did you use the same MF pads to finish ?

Since this video was made we updated the Uro-Fiber line. Initially, as Brian so aptly demonstrated, he used our first offering, the black and white all in one pad. However, we found out through field feedback, there were some cases under fresh paint conditions where the pad was a little too aggressive. I have to stress these were isolated cases, but enough to create a more specific finishing pad that resulted in the creation of a finishing Uro-Fiber pad in black fiber. Basically a softer version for ultimate finishing for those who desire or need a two-step application. However, the black and white Euro-Fiber has remained unchanged in terms of its popularity and people commonly use it as their one-step solution with the long throw, force rotation, or other DA polishers. This line up is not intended for the rotary machine. Thanks again Brian for your well thought out and professional evaluation of this unique (and patented) product. As a side note, I've been with Buff and Shine Mfg for 25 years, first serving as a national sales rep and the remainder as the International Sales Mgr. Prior to Buff and Shine, I had ten years of experience as a detail shop manager and served as a regional rep for two separate care product manufacturers.

Apex Detail. The Torq does the job & will give you the same results of any other polisher, like the Rupes & so on. Now you can’t put the Flex 3401 up against any other polisher because it’s a whole different system with their Force rotation & not a free spinning polisher. But I love, love, love my Flex 3401. The Torq, Griots, Rupes & so on to me their all the same & will give you the same results. Your technique is the key to a great results, swirl free high gloss finish. I just received my Torq R yesterday. I only open the box to see how it looks & put it back in the box. I will test it soon on something. I don’t know why I ordered the Torq R.
