Arctic Cut Pad - Foam Heavy Cut Polishing Pad

Cut deep. Stay smooth.

Wool cuts hard but it marks the surface — and on curves, edges, and sensitive panels, that's a non-starter. Arctic Cut Pad is the foam answer. Built to load Garra Cut at full ultra-heavy strength, it breaks down 600-grit sanding scratches, deep oxidation, severe chalking, and decade-old salt etching while maintaining the surface forgiveness only foam delivers. Velcro hook-and-loop backing locks to your plate through the sustained load that ultra-heavy compounding demands.

The step-one pad when the gel coat has been left for dead.

Key Features:

• Ultra-heavy cut in foam — engineered to run Garra Cut at full strength
• Foam construction prevents the marring wool can leave on curves and edges
• Velcro hook-and-loop backing — fast swaps, no slip
• Built for marine gel coat, automotive paint, and RV restoration
• The first-step pad in an Arctic → Wraith → Refine sequence
• Engineered for detailers
• Made in the USA

How to Use: Load 10-20 pea-sized drops of Garra Cut onto the Arctic Cut Pad. Run a rotary polisher at 1500-1800 RPM in 2x2 ft sections with firm, even pressure until oxidation breaks down and the surface clears. Wipe residue with a clean microfiber. Follow with the Wraith Pad + Extremo to refine the cut.

Best paired with Garra Cut.
