Sonax Yellow Polishing Pad – 143 mm & 165 mm.

The Sonax Yellow Polishing Pad is a professional-quality polishing accessory designed to deliver smooth, consistent results on all types of automotive paint. Available in two sizes—5.75 inches (143 mm) and 6.5 inches (165 mm)—these pads are ideal for orbital and dual-action polishers, offering high performance and durability for both professional detailers and car enthusiasts.

• The 143 mm pad features a softer, open-pored sponge with uniform cells, making it perfect for machine polishing delicate paintwork. Its design allows for excellent polish absorption, which prevents splashing and ensures an even finish. The pad also benefits from good ventilation and special cooling at the hub, resulting in a longer service life. The Velcro fastening system allows for quick and easy disc changes during your detailing process.
• The 165 mm pad shares all the features of the 143 mm version, but it also includes additional advantages for dual-action polishers. Its beveled edge provides better control during buffing, ensuring more consistent results, while the center hole prevents heat buildup and makes it easier to center the pad on the machine. This pad is perfect for correcting moderate to minor paint imperfections during the polishing stage.

For best results, use only one polishing sponge at a time and avoid applying excessive downward pressure. Proper handling significantly extends the lifespan of the sponge. After polishing, rinse the pad carefully with water and allow it to dry naturally. Avoid cleaning with high-pressure equipment, which can damage the pad’s structure.

Whether you are performing light polish corrections or refining paint surfaces for a flawless finish, the Sonax Yellow Polishing Pad delivers consistent, high-quality results. Its durability, even absorption, and easy handling make it an essential tool for any detailing workflow.
