Those who force the Ultra Hard onto the paint crush the foam, generate heat, and create holograms in the clear coat instead of cutting it cleanly. Let the weight of the machine do the work and just guide it. Cleaning during work is just as important. On a scratched black hood, our pad became clogged with polishing dust after two passes and just smeared until we knocked it out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAttach hook-and-loop, apply polish thinly, guide with pressure\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePress the Ultra Hard onto the center of the hook-and-loop backing plate, apply a small amount of rubbing compound, distribute it at low speed, and then work it in with medium pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApply the polish in pea-to-hazelnut-sized amounts and dab it onto the surface while the machine is stopped so nothing sprays. Distribute it at about 1,000 RPM and then increase to up to 1,800 RPM until the polish film becomes clear. Work in sections of about 40 by 40 centimeters and keep the pad flat on the paint, not tilted over the edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ultra Hard is color-coordinated with the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/zvizzer-pc-5000-pre-cut-blau-schleifpolitur\"\u003ePC 5000 Pre Cut\u003c\/a\u003e; the two form the coarsest correction stage. Knock the pad out or brush it off after two to three sections; a clogged pad no longer cuts. On weathered 2026 paint, we needed one pass with the hard combination, whereas a medium pad ran two cycles without visible progress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHeavy correction yes; finish and wax no\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ultra Hard is made for heavy paint correction and, due to its design, leaves a fine sanding pattern that you must polish out with softer pads before the paint achieves a mirror finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts strength is initial cut: deep scratches, heavy holograms, and sanding marks after wet sanding that require real bite. As the hardest pad in the series, it cuts where a medium or soft pad only polishes without reaching the defect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe limits are clear. A hard pad is not for light swirls on well-maintained paint; you are removing clear coat unnecessarily, and a medium pad is sufficient. It is also not a finishing pad or an applicator for wax or sealant; it is far too coarse for that. And it comes at the cost of material: every cut removes some of the approximately 40 to 50 micrometer thin clear coat; caution is mandatory on edges and thin paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen choosing a pad, the \"if-then\" logic applies. If you need deep defect removal and maximum cut, then use the Ultra Hard with a coarse polish.

The five sizes from Ø 50 to 165 mm allow you to cover surfaces accordingly: large pads for hoods and roofs, small ones for mirrors, bumpers, and tight contours.

Anyone who combines a hard red pad with a finish polish or forces a soft pad to do the cutting generates frictional heat without abrasion — the paint gets hot and holograms remain instead of correction. Keep the color of the pad and polish in the same stage, i.e., red hard pad for red cut polish. And choose a backing plate 5 to 10 millimeters smaller than the pad, otherwise the edge will tear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAttaching, dosing the polish, and covering the surface in overlapping passes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAttach the Thermo Trapez Pad Hard centered onto the backing plate, apply the cut polish directly to the pad, and work the surface in overlapping passes of about 40 by 40 centimeters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA prerequisite is a clean surface: washed, decontaminated, and taped off. Residues of tar or industrial fallout would otherwise settle into the open-cell pad and cause new scratches. A suitable powerful cut polish in terms of color is the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/zvizzer-hc-4000-heavy-cut-rot-schleifpolitur\"\u003eHC 4000 Heavy Cut\u003c\/a\u003e in red, which belongs to the hardness grade of this pad.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pad runs on both random orbital and rotary polishers. Keep it clean: knock out the polishing dust after two to three passes or change the pad, because a clogged pad just smears and no longer builds cut. For larger areas, use the Ø 140 or Ø 165 millimeter pads; for bumpers and mirrors, use the small 50 to 90 millimeter pads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePowerful cut yes, finish and wax no\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hard red pad is built for abrasion. It corrects deep scratches and weathered paint, but is not suitable for the finish stage or for wax application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts core area is heavy correction: hard, neglected paint where you have to bring back the shine with a cut polish first. In our practice on-site in Nordhorn, the red pad is the grade we use on a weathered front hood before even thinking about a finish. With cut polish, a light haze remains afterward — this is intentional and is polished out later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe boundaries are clear. If dealing with deep scratches and hard paint, use the Hard Pad in red with a cut polish. If dealing with only light swirls and holograms, go one stage softer with the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/zvizzer-thermo-trapez-pad-medium-orange-thermo-schaumpad\"\u003eMedium Pad in orange\u003c\/a\u003e, which abrades less.

Those who correct regularly view the pad as a system: across the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/polierpads-schleifschwamme\"\u003epolishing pad range\u003c\/a\u003e, you control the abrasive power via the color, from Ultra Hard in blue to Ultra Soft in green, and always keep the pad and polish in the same stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne point that almost no one pays attention to: a new pad absorbs more polish in the first pass than it does later because the dry foam soaks it up. Therefore, apply a little more at the beginning and check after the first area; otherwise, you will work the start dry and wonder about the lack of cut, when in reality it was just that the pad had not yet been \"broken in.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ZviZZer","offers":[{"title":"Ø 50\/20\/35 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867580342607,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00005020HC","price":4.89,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 70\/20\/55 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867580375375,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00007020HC","price":5.46,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 90\/20\/75 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867580408143,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00009020HC","price":5.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ø 140\/20\/125 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867580440911,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00014020HC","price":11.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ø 165\/20\/150 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867580473679,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00016520HC","price":15.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ø 50\/20\/35 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882132611407,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00005020HC_10","price":48.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 50\/20\/35 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882132644175,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00005020HC_50","price":244.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 70\/20\/55 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882132676943,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00007020HC_10","price":54.6,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 70\/20\/55 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882132709711,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00007020HC_50","price":273.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 90\/20\/75 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882132742479,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00009020HC_10","price":59.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 90\/20\/75 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882132775247,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00009020HC_50","price":299.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 140\/20\/125 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882132808015,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00014020HC_10","price":119.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 140\/20\/125 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882132840783,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00014020HC_50","price":599.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 165\/20\/150 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882132873551,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00016520HC_10","price":159.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 165\/20\/150 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882132906319,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TTR00016520HC_50","price":799.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/zvizzer-thermo-trapez-pad-hard-rot-thermo-schaumpad_50-20-35-mm.png?v=1780776707"},{"product_id":"zvizzer-thermo-trapez-pad-medium-orange-thermo-schaumpad","title":"Thermo Trapez Pad \"Medium\" thermo foam pad (Orange)","description":"\u003ch2 id=\"speakable-headline\"\u003eThe versatile Medium pad for one-step polishing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cblockquote id=\"speakable-summary\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat is the ZviZZer Thermo Trapez Pad Medium?

Always match the pad to the polish: the orange Medium goes with a one-step polish like the MC 3000. Knock out the polish dust after two or three sections, otherwise a clogged pad just smears.

If you lean on the machine, heat builds up, and the pad itself creates fine holograms that you will then have to polish out again. Work with the weight of the machine and light pressure, moving in passes rather than focusing on a single spot, and brush out the pad every two to three sections. On weathered Audi A4 paint, a clogged pad only caused smears for us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApply Pre-Cut polish and work in passes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ultra-Hard pad works with the most powerful sanding stage: apply a pea-sized amount of polish to the pad, distribute it at a low speed, and then work it in with light pressure in overlapping passes until the defects disappear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA prerequisite is clean, masked paint—washed and decontaminated so that no particles become embedded in the pad and create new scratches. The blue pad is color-coordinated with the powerful \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/zvizzer-pc-5000-pre-cut-blau-schleifpolitur\"\u003ePC 5000 Pre Cut sanding polish\u003c\/a\u003e. Work in sections of about 40 by 40 centimeters and check after each area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the pad clean: brush out the polishing dust after two to three sections or switch to a second pad; a clogged pad will only smear. After polishing, wash out with lukewarm water and a bit of pad cleaner, then air-dry lying flat—never on a heater—to keep the thermo-foam dimensionally stable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHeavy correction yes, finishing no\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ultra-Hard pad is made for heavy correction: deep scratches, severe holograms, and weathered clear coat are its core specialty; it is not for the final high-gloss finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts strength is maximum removal. Where a medium or soft pad needs multiple passes or fails to get through entirely, the hard blue pad with Pre-Cut polish removes the defects in one step. The rubber support layer keeps the pressure even across a large hood, rather than cutting only under the edge of the plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe limits are clear: such a hard pad usually leaves behind a light sanding pattern after heavy correction, which a second step with a softer pad and finer polish will remove. On soft, sensitive clear coats—such as many Japanese paints—the Ultra Hard is quickly too aggressive and causes its own holograms. In that case, the one-grade-softer \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/zvizzer-thermo-allrounder-pad-hard-rot-thermo-schaumpad\"\u003eHard Pad in red\u003c\/a\u003e is the safer choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis leads to the if-then logic of hardness selection. If there are deep defects and hard paint, then choose Ultra Hard in blue with Pre-Cut. If there are medium defects or softer paint, choose one step softer and a finer polish. Harder means more cut, softer means better finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFor heavy correction, not a quick freshen-up\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pad is the right choice when real defects need to be removed: neglected paint with deep scratches, holograms from incorrect previous preparation, or years of weathering where raw cutting power counts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it works on both random orbital and rotary polishers, it fits everyone from the ambitious dual-action beginner to the professional using a rotary. Ultra Hard is the starting point of a multi-step setup, not a pad for occasional use. You can find the appropriate hardness level in the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/polierpads-schleifschwamme\"\u003ePolishing Pads and Sanding Sponges\u003c\/a\u003e category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hard pad is less suitable if the paint is actually in good condition and only needs a gloss refresh. For light swirls, a medium pad is sufficient; for pure high-gloss, a soft one—the ultra-hard pad would unnecessarily remove material, and clear coat is thin and finite at about 40 to 50 micrometers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe one point many underestimate: during heavy correction, the pad determines the result more than the polish. The same Pre-Cut polish cuts noticeably more aggressively on the ultra-hard blue pad than on a soft one. Through this pad change, you control the stages—with one polish and the ZviZZer pad system from blue to green, you cover the entire spectrum from heavy correction to finish.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ZviZZer","offers":[{"title":"Ø 50\/20\/35 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867588796751,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00005020PC","price":5.83,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 70\/20\/55 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867588829519,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00007020PC","price":6.69,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 90\/20\/75 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867588862287,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00009020PC","price":5.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ø 140\/20\/125 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867588895055,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00014020PC","price":12.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ø 165\/20\/150 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867588927823,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00016520PC","price":16.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ø 50\/20\/35 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882130121039,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00005020PC_10","price":58.3,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 50\/20\/35 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882130153807,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00005020PC_50","price":291.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 70\/20\/55 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882130186575,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00007020PC_10","price":66.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 70\/20\/55 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882130219343,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00007020PC_50","price":334.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 90\/20\/75 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882130252111,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00009020PC_10","price":59.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 90\/20\/75 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882130284879,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00009020PC_50","price":299.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 140\/20\/125 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882130317647,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00014020PC_10","price":129.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 140\/20\/125 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882130350415,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00014020PC_50","price":649.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 165\/20\/150 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882130383183,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00016520PC_10","price":169.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 165\/20\/150 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882130415951,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00016520PC_50","price":849.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/zvizzer-thermo-allrounder-pad-ultra-hard-blau-thermo-schaumpad_50-20-35-mm.png?v=1780779054"},{"product_id":"zvizzer-thermo-allrounder-pad-hard-rot-thermo-schaumpad","title":"Thermo Allrounder Pad \"Hard\" thermo foam pad (Red)","description":"\u003ch2 id=\"speakable-headline\"\u003eSerious cut and stable pressure thanks to a rubber support layer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cblockquote id=\"speakable-summary\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat is the ZviZZer Thermo Allrounder Pad Hard?

Lean the pad into the paint and you get friction heat instead of cut — on 2026 paint we had a dull haze instead of correction within seconds. Let the abrasives in the polish do the work: a pea-sized amount on the pad, spread at about 1,000 rpm, then work it in with medium pressure at up to 1,800 rpm. The hard pad delivers its cut through the abrasives, not through your elbow grease.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpread first, then work it in with medium pressure\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpread a pea-sized amount of polish at about 1,000 rpm, then work it in with light to medium pressure at up to 1,800 rpm until the polish film turns clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt runs on DA and rotary alike.

Pair a coarse cutting compound with the soft pad and you'll wonder why there's no correction and why the paint just smears. Pad hardness and polish grit have to match, and the yellow soft pad belongs with a fine finishing polish. Here in Nordhorn, on a soft Japanese clear coat, 3 pea-sized drops of FC 2000 on the soft pad got us a clean mirror where a harder pad still pulled holograms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePad hardness and polish have to match each other\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe soft pad only gives up its cut with the right polish: soft pad plus a fine finishing polish gives you gloss, soft pad plus a coarse polish just gives you smear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDay-to-day, the yellow ZviZZer Allrounder Pad Soft is the partner to the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/zvizzer-fc-2000-fine-cut-gelb-finish-politur\"\u003eFC 2000 finishing polish\u003c\/a\u003e in the same yellow grade.

Cured polish residue gums up the open foam, and then it loses both grip and gloss. Let it air-dry, not in the sun. That way the tear-resistant thermo foam stays dimensionally stable for a long time and you really do get the six-fold lifespan out of it, instead of binning the pad after a few cars.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ZviZZer","offers":[{"title":"Ø 50\/20\/35 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867589484879,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00005020FC","price":5.83,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 70\/20\/55 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867589517647,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00007020FC","price":6.69,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 90\/20\/75 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867589550415,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00009020FC","price":5.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 140\/20\/125 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867589583183,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00014020FC","price":12.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ø 165\/20\/150 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867589615951,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00016520FC","price":16.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ø 50\/20\/35 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882118029647,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00005020FC_10","price":58.3,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 50\/20\/35 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882118062415,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00005020FC_50","price":291.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 70\/20\/55 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882118095183,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00007020FC_10","price":66.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 70\/20\/55 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882118127951,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00007020FC_50","price":334.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 90\/20\/75 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882118160719,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00009020FC_10","price":59.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 90\/20\/75 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882118193487,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00009020FC_50","price":299.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 140\/20\/125 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882118226255,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00014020FC_10","price":129.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 140\/20\/125 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882118259023,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00014020FC_50","price":649.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 165\/20\/150 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57882118291791,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00016520FC_10","price":169.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 165\/20\/150 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57882118324559,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00016520FC_50","price":849.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/zvizzer-thermo-allrounder-pad-soft-gelb-thermo-schaumpad_50-20-35-mm.png?v=1780779407"},{"product_id":"zvizzer-thermo-allrounder-pad-ultra-soft-gruen-thermo-schaumpad","title":"Thermo Allrounder Pad \"Ultra Soft\" Thermo Foam Pad (Green)","description":"\u003ch2 id=\"speakable-headline\"\u003eRemove holograms and seal in deep gloss\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cblockquote id=\"speakable-summary\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat is the ZviZZer Thermo Allrounder Pad Ultra Soft?

With no film of polish, the open-pore foam rubs on the paint, builds up heat and sets exactly the holograms it's supposed to remove — we reproduced that in a test on soft black paint. Keep the pad damp, work at a moderate speed and tap it out every two or three sections. A clean, lightly dampened pad finishes better than a clogged one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLittle polish, keep it damp and work it up to high gloss\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou work the Ultra Soft pad with a pea-sized blob of finishing polish at a moderate speed until the polish film goes clear and the mirror gloss stands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy colour and grade it pairs with the green \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/zvizzer-uc-1000-ultrafine-cut-gruen-finish-politur\"\u003eUC 1000 finishing polish\u003c\/a\u003e, which pulls out the finest swirls and seals in the same pass.

Work in sections of about 40 by 40 centimetres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the pad clean: after two or three sections, tap out the polish dust or switch to a fresh pad. A clogged pad just smears and won't build any more gloss. You can clean it with a brush, compressed air or in the wash at 30 to 40 degrees — then air-dry it, never in the dryer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFinish and sealing yes, scratch correction no\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ultra Soft pad is built for the last step — holograms gone, gloss in, coating laid down evenly. It deliberately doesn't correct, because the soft grade soaks up the cutting power of any polish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat's exactly its strength when jewelling dark, soft paint and when machine-applying coatings, where a harder pad would drag streaks. Over the rubber backing layer it runs smooth enough that even beginners can pull off a clean mirror.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe limits are clear: when there are scratches or swirls in the paint, reach first for a harder pad from the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/polierpads-schleifschwamme\"\u003epolishing pad category\u003c\/a\u003e with a cutting or one-step polish, and only then bring in the Ultra Soft pad as the finish. If you want to correct and shine in a single pass, the medium-hard orange pad is the better call — on the green pad the correction just won't happen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFor the finishing polisher, not the quick reconditioner\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ultra Soft pad is the right call when you want that last percent of depth after correction, or when you need to lay a coating down mirror-smooth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's less suited to the quick reconditioner who wants to be done in one pass: with no cut, every defect stays visible. If you regularly work from scratch all the way to a mirror, you're better off with the graded ZviZZer pad system from Ultra Hard to Ultra Soft than with a single pad — each colour a hardness, each hardness a job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe one trick no manufacturer writes down: wash a new pad out once and squeeze it dry before you start. Otherwise factory residue in the fresh foam spreads through the first layer and leaves a fine haze on exactly the dark paint the Ultra Soft pad is meant to make shine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"ZviZZer","offers":[{"title":"Ø 50\/20\/35 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867589648719,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00005020UC","price":5.83,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 70\/20\/55 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867589681487,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00007020UC","price":6.69,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 90\/20\/75 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867589714255,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00009020UC","price":5.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ø 140\/20\/125 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867589747023,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00014020UC","price":12.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ø 165\/20\/150 mm \/ 1 piece","offer_id":57867589779791,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00016520UC","price":16.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ø 90\/20\/75 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57881920667983,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00009020UC_10","price":59.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 90\/20\/75 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57881920700751,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00009020UC_50","price":299.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 50\/20\/35 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57881932923215,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00005020UC_10","price":58.3,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 50\/20\/35 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57881932955983,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00005020UC_50","price":291.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 70\/20\/55 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57881932988751,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00007020UC_10","price":66.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 70\/20\/55 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57881933021519,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00007020UC_50","price":334.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 140\/20\/125 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57881933054287,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00014020UC_10","price":129.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 140\/20\/125 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57881933087055,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00014020UC_50","price":649.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 165\/20\/150 mm \/ 10 pieces","offer_id":57881933119823,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00016520UC_10","price":169.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ø 165\/20\/150 mm \/ 50 pieces","offer_id":57881933152591,"sku":"D1-ZVIZZER-TAR00016520UC_50","price":849.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/zvizzer-thermo-allrounder-pad-ultra-soft-gruen-thermo-schaumpad_50-20-35-mm.png?v=1780779681"}],"url":"https:\/\/detailing1.at\/en\/collections\/schaumstoff-polierpads-70-mm.oembed?page=2","provider":"Detailing1","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
