Not every correction job needs a thick, bulky pad. Flexipads 160mm (6.5") X-SLIM 18mm Black Micro Fine Buffing Pad gives you a thin, controlled pad profile for tighter machine work, cleaner feedback, and more confidence when you are correcting exterior paint.
The X-SLIM 18mm design helps keep the pad stable and responsive, especially when working around curves, body lines, smaller panels, and tighter sections where control matters. It is built for detailers who want the pad to follow the surface instead of fighting the machine.
Use it in your finishing and refining step when you need a Flexipads foam pad that feels precise, predictable, and ready for real paint correction work.
Key Benefits:
- X-SLIM 18mm foam profile improves machine control and pad feedback
- Rounded, softer pad edge helps reduce harsh pad marks around curves and contours
- 160mm (6.5") size fits the matching correction workflow without wasting product
- Works with DA or rotary machines when paired with the correct backing plate
- Ideal for exterior paint correction, polishing, and refining workflows
How to Use:
- Prime the pad lightly with the correct compound or polish
- Attach it securely to the matching backing plate
- Work a clean section at a time using controlled pressure and arm speed
- Blow out or brush the pad as residue builds
- Switch to a fresh pad when cut, finish, or temperature control starts to drop
