## Overview

The Chemical Guys Hex-Logic Medium-Heavy Cutting Foam Pad (Orange, 5.5 inch) is engineered for professional-grade paint correction on automotive surfaces. Featuring a patented hex cell design, it delivers balanced medium-heavy cutting power ideal for moderate swirl marks and light scratches. Compatible with all major 5 inch backing plates, this pad ensures faster, more uniform polishing results, making it a must-have for detailers aiming for flawless finishes before waxing or sealing.

## Description

Most paint correction work does not need the most aggressive cutting pad in the lineup. Heavy cutting pads are the right choice for neglected car paint with years of accumulated swirl marks and deep defects, but for paint with moderate swirl marks, fine scratches, and light oxidation, the Chemical Guys Hex-Logic Medium-Heavy Cutting Pad Orange is the better starting point. This cutting foam polishing pad is sized for 5 inch backing plates on dual-action, random-orbital, and rotary polishers. This paint correction pad is a practical fit among 5 inch polishing pads used in car cleaning, and auto detailing supplies.The orange color designation sits between the yellow heavy cutting pad and the white polishing pad in the Hex-Logic lineup. As a foam cutting pad, it delivers cutting power for swirl removal and scratch removal without unnecessary aggression when defects are not severe.The Hex-Logic hex cell surface pattern distributes polishing compound or cutting compound evenly across the pad face. Pair with V36 Optical Grade Cutting Polish, then follow with the white Hex-Logic polishing pad and V38 Final Polish to refine the surface and improve gloss before wax or sealant application.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which pad do you guys prefer?  What do you recommend (2011 with swirls from washing/drying and a new 2015 that I will polish and wax upon arrival)?**
A: He the same problems with a black car. Real heavy swirl marks. Used VSS from Chemical Guys with a orange pad sealed it with Jet seal and a black pad came back over with a microfiber applicator and BlackLight glaze.

**Q: is this a velcro/hook and loop pad. is this the pad i would buy to remove light swirl marks on a new clear coat finish? thank you**
A: The orange pad is for swirl removal generally with something like m 105. The white pad is for polishing to bring out the shine with something like m 205 but it does have a light cut for fine swirl marks.

**Q: Do these pads stick to a orbital sander?**
A: They have a Velcro backing. The pads are the "furry/loop" part. You need the backing plate (most are yellow) that attaches to the orbital sander.

**Q: how do you clean them**
A: This all depends on if you just want to clean them, or clean and rejuvenate them. If you just want to clean them and aren't worried about the foam pads tearing or wearing out then a good (mild) dish soap like Dawn will clean them. However a good Polishing and Buffing Pad Conditioner will do so much more. By using a Polishing and Buffing Pad Conditioner you will reduce friction so the pad will be less susceptible to tearing. Lubricated pads cut and polish with less wear and tear on the pad. The light conditioning lubricants inside add extra surface protection by reducing dry friction while polishing. A good Polishing and Buffing Pad Conditioner works with lubricants in the products you are using, providing extra needed lubrication to protect against micro-marring and the possibility of burning paint through friction. I use the Chemical Guys BUF_301_16 Polishing and Buffing Pad Conditioner ( https://www.amazon.com/Chemical-Guys-BUF_301_16-Polishing-Conditioner/dp/B0040MGUKI/ref=pd_cp_263_3?pd_rd_w=9EAYa&pf_rd_p=ef4dc990-a9ca-4945-ae0b-f8d549198ed6&pf_rd_r=9AY1HK00EBJ7VGF63EXQ&pd_rd_r=e1e9d9e0-2ea5-4850-a9f7-a88ed6374fad&pd_rd_wg=Z4aLG&pd_rd_i=B0040MGUKI&psc=1&refRID=9AY1HK00EBJ7VGF63EXQ ) and it works great. Cost about the same as the Dawn soap alone does but works so much better and the pads last longer with it too. 

Cleans microfiber cloths and wool pads as well (do not use regular soaps on microfiber cloths because they will get gummed up). Once the pads have been cleaned shake them a few times to purge any water left inside the pad, and then let them dry in the sun for a few hours (velcro side facing down). Once dry you can then put them back into the plastic bag they came in, but do NOT put them in the bag wet or mold will form and ruin the pads.
