Auto Choice 5" Finishing Polishing Pad (T40)

The last step before the wow. The Auto Choice 5" T40 Finishing Pad is engineered to maximise gloss and paint clarity prior to protection. Its curved mesh design maximises surface contact for smooth, even polishing while minimising micro-marring — leaving nothing behind but deep, mirror-like shine on everyday vehicles and show cars alike.

Key Benefits

  • Maximum gloss enhancement – eliminates minor marks and micro-marring when used with a fine polish
  • Curved mesh face design – smooth, even polishing with improved paint clarity
  • Superior heat control – reduces excess heat that can damage foam or paint, prolonging pad life
  • Smooth, low-vibration handling – balanced foam compression reduces strain on tools and arms, ideal for sensitive paints
  • Hook-and-loop backing – swap in quickly after your correction stages
  • 5" (125mm) size – versatile across panels, machines and surfaces

Which Pad Do I Need?

Use the Finishing pad as the final machine stage after cutting and polishing — it refines the surface to maximum clarity, ready for wax, sealant or ceramic coating.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this pad fit my machine?
Yes — any dual action or rotary polisher with a 5" hook-and-loop backing plate.

What should I use with it?
An ultra-fine finishing polish or gloss enhancer for the deepest possible shine.

Do I need this pad if my paint is already corrected?
It's the pad that takes corrected paint from good to show-ready — perfect before applying protection.

Directions

1. Complete your correction stages first, then wipe the panel clean of any compound residue.
2. Centre the pad on a 5" hook-and-loop backing plate and apply 3–4 small dots of an ultra-fine finishing polish.
3. Spread at low speed, then work in slow, overlapping passes using very light pressure — let the pad glide over the surface.
4. Buff off with a clean, plush microfibre and check gloss and clarity under good lighting.
5. Degrease the panel with a panel preparation spray, then apply your wax, sealant or ceramic coating; wash and dry the pad before storage.
