Lake Country HDO Foam Pads are specially designed foam pads that were developed for long-stroke dual action polishers. This line was created to offer more durable and performance enhancing characteristics.

Lake Country HDO Foam Pads feature a dual-density design. This unique design eliminates the concaving effect that other pads experience, allowing the pads to maintain optimum surface contact and extended usage on long-stroke machines, like the Rupes LHR 15 ES and LHR 21ES Big Foot Random Orbital Polishers.

Lake Country HDO Foam Pads will outlast and outperform any other foam pads on a long-stroke dual action polisher – guaranteed.

Microfibre Heavy Cutting HDO Pad – Features a microfibre nap that removes heavy imperfections from your painted surfaces. Like other microfibre pads, it has enough to remove moderate to severe paint imperfections, but finishes like a foam pad.

Blue Cutting HDO Foam Pad – Firm, medium density foam for scratch and defect removal. Use this pad with polishes and swirl removers as an all around pad that will work on most light to moderate imperfections.

Orange Polishing HDO Foam Pad – Less dense foam formula for the application of cleaner waxes and light polishes. This pad has very light cutting power so it’s perfect for the removal of light defects and micro marring.

Red Waxing HDO Foam Pad – Composition is firm enough to withstand added pressure during final finishing to remove buffer swirls. It has very little cut and will apply thin, even coats of waxes, sealants, and glazes, and ultra fine polishes.

Black Finishing HDO Foam Pad – Super soft composition perfect for a flawless finish. With absolutely no cut, this pad will apply thin, even coats of waxes, sealants, and ultra fine glazes and will buff to perfection.

SDO Pads have been designed to offer the same great engineered foams as the HDO line, without the dual layer constructions.

These pads are designed for use on all Dual Action polishers with a centre ventilated backing plate.

Lake Country SDO Pads feature a centre hole that provides a tunnel to release and dissipate heat from the foam and reduce surface temperatures and risk of damage to the paint.

SDO Pads feature a tapered edge to prevent the pads from rolling and to provide great pad rotation. This allows for precision polishing in tight areas and is especially effective on curved and contoured panels.

The pack contains:

• Microfibre Heavy Cutting Pad HDO (blue border)
• One-Step Light Cutting Pad HDO (orange border)
• Blue Heavy Polishing Pad HDO CCS
• Orange Polishing Pad HDO CCS
• Black Finishing Pad HDO CCS

All pads fit 5 inch backing plates.

The Blue Heavy Polishing Pad tackles heavier defects, the Orange Polishing Pad is a powerful all-rounder, the Black Finishing Pad provides ultimate gloss, the Microfibre Heavy Cutting Pad provides maximum cut and control, and the One-Step Light Cutting Pad cuts and polishes in one step.

HDO pads are dual-layered and this reduces lateral/horizontal movement, resulting in a reduction of molecular friction inside the pad which increases durability by eliminating excessive heat & reduces foam fatigue.

The foam pads feature a tapered edge which prevents the pad rolling and provides great pad rotation. This makes them great for curved and contoured panels, and allows for precision polishing in tight areas.

Centre ventilated cooling channels dissipate heat away from the centre of the pad, reducing temperatures and increasing durability. The system also allows for perfect pad alignment.

The knitted wool pad is designed to give high levels of cut when used in conjunction with heavy/aggressive machine compounds.

Wool pads give high levels of cut quickly and with reduced heat build up. It will be necessary to refine the finish with a lighter polish and pad combination after the compounding stage.
