Description
The full set of Lake Country CCS pads in 5.5", every pad you could ever need.Yellow Cutting Foams - Use this pad to apply compounds or polishes to remove severe oxidation, swirls, and scratches. It is the most aggressive and should only be used on oxidized and older finishes. Always follow this pad with an orange or white pad and a fine polish to refine the paint until it is smooth.
Orange Light Cutting Foam - Firm, high density foam for scratch and defect removal. Use this pad with polishes and swirl removers. It’s an all around pad that will work on most light to moderate imperfections.
White Polishing Foam - Less dense foam formula for the application of waxes, micro-fine polishes and sealants. This pad has very light cutting power so its perfect for pre-wax cleaners.
Green Polishing/Finishing Foam - Use this foam to apply one-step cleaner waxes. It is a balance of polishing and finishing that is perfect for all-in-one product application.
Gray Finishing Foam - Composition is firm enough to withstand added pressure during final finishing to remove buffer swirls. It has no cut and will apply thin, even coats of waxes, sealants, and glazes.
Blue Finessing Foam – This blue foam pad has soft composition for applying glaze, finishing polish, sealants, and liquid waxes. The soft pad has no cut, making it perfect for applying nonabrasive products evenly.
Red Ultrasoft Wax/Sealant Foam – This soft, imported foam is ideal for applying the final coat of wax or sealant. The foam works especially well when applying liquid waxes or sealants because it is firm enough to keep the majority of the product on the paint, rather than soaking it up. The red foam has no cut or cleaning ability.
What is CCS Technology™?
CCS (Collapsed Cell Structure) pads were developed after more than two years of development with automakers and polishing companies. The result of this development was the patanted Collapsed Cell Structure technology, the basis of this technology is a pattern of strategically placed pockets on the surface of the pad.
In these areas the cells of the pad have been closed. As a result polish does not soak into the pad like conventional pads, meaning the polish is able to work for longer.
This therefore helps solve the problem of premature "drying". Conventional foam pads absorb water-based formulas instantly, this reduces polish and pad performance because most of the polish is trapped below the working surface of the pad.
CCS technology™ solves this problem with partially closed foam cells which slow the absorption of liquid, keeping it on the working surface.
This not only extends the workability of water and solvent-based polishes, levelers and compounds, it reduces product usage, saves time and makes the polishing process a lot easier.
The pockets also reduce skipping due to less surface tension and heat build up as a smaller contact area is given to the surface of the paint.
OEM tests confirm CCS pads out-perform convoluted pad designs.
