Quality-made foam pads for every detailing challenge!
The Cyclo Dual-Head Polisher has two small heads as opposed to one larger one. Since there’s no other polisher quite like it, it has its own line of pads and accessories for every detailing need. These pads are different from our other dual action pads, so take note of each color and its purpose.
The Cyclo pads are 4” in diameter. Made of high quality foam, they vary in density in order to tackle specific jobs. For example, the white pad is the least dense in order apply wax or sealant without abrading the paint. All the pads have hook & loop backing securely bonded to the foam. This allows you to change pads easily. Below are descriptions of all the varieties of Cyclo pads. Please note, you will need a pad holder in order to use the hook & loop pads.
Hook & Loop Pad Holder: This is a rubber boot that fits over each head of the Cyclo polisher. The bottom of each boot has a hook & loop surface to hold pads. The pad holders fit snugly over the heads and they will not slip off or shift while polishing. You will two pad holders for one Cyclo polisher.
Because the pad holders fit so snugly, it can be tough to put them onto the Cyclo. Luckily, we came up with a simple method. Turn the pad holder inside out and push the sides down over the polishing head. Follow this step-by-step guide to put on the pad holders:
White Finishing Pad: The white pad is Cyclo’s softest pad. It is intended for final buffing and wax application.
It will render a glossy shine without polishing. This pad has no cut.
Green Polishing Pad: The green pad is more aggressive than the white pad. It has a mild cut for gentle polishing. Use your favorite polish or pre-wax cleaner to remove light oxidation and bring out a bright, glossy shine.
Orange Compounding & Polishing Pad: The orange pad is the all-around swirl remover, polisher, and paint deoxidizer. Made of high density foam, this pad will correct most mild to moderate paint imperfections and polish metal and chrome.
Yellow Cutting Pad: The yellow cutting pad is intended for more aggressive swirl and scratch removal. It is made of dense foam and will work well with compounds and advanced swirl removers. This pad is comparable to our Wolfgang™ yellow cutting pad.
Yellow Scrubbing Pad: The yellow scrubber is the most aggressive pad. It is the highest density foam and will take care of your most stubborn surface problems. Use this pad to remove bugs, tar, sap, and as an aggressive paint deoxidizer.
Remember, the Cyclo has two heads! Pads and pad holders are sold in packs of two.
