Precise Wool Cutting Pad for superior correction

AMMO SHEER is a highly engineered wool cutting pad, designed for large stroke dual-action polishers. SHEER maximizes cut and finish while giving you extreme control, comfort, and confidence while polishing. The wool fibers act as delicate fingers to get deep into scratches for quick, safe, and simple corrections. Non-tapered, thick side walls allow both novice and pro to easily see the outer edges of the pad for precision work, leading to a better overall correction.

  • Durable wool finishing pad
  • Rejuvenates paint gloss, clarity, and luster
  • Removes paint defects, scratches, swirls, and hazing
  • Premium wool fibers optimized for superior cut
  • Non-Tapered pad allows precise edge control on tight body panels
  • Available in 6 inch, 5 inch, and 3 inch diameters for multiple buffers

How do I use Sheer Cutting Pad

1. Center SHEER CUTTING PAD on the backing plate of the polisher and lay on a bench with the pad facing up.

2. Prime pad with X-FOLIATE in 3 to 4 concentric circles.

3. Massage X-FOLIATE into every fiber while wearing clean latex gloves or use a putty knife to spread so that it covers every fiber. Avoid polishing with "dry fibers" as it will not cut or finish properly.

4. Place the pad face down on the paint before pulling the variable speed trigger.

5. Gently pump the pad up and down on the paint while priming to force X-FOLIATE into the fibers of the pad.

6. Once primed, add 3 small dots and work a 2 x 2 foot section of the paint at a time.

TIP: For best results, keep machine speed between 2.5 and 3. Blow out or clean the pad with a microfiber towel frequently, then reapply a large X-shape of X-FOLIATE on the pad before moving on to the next panel.

Sheer Cutting Pad FAQ

Q: What is a Cutting Pad?

A: The SHEER CUTTING PAD is designed for removing defects, scratches, swirls, and oxidation. Paired with X-FOLIATE Polishing Fluid, this combo is perfect for defect removal on harder paint and two step corrections followed with the WÄFL finishing pad.

Q: Why does this pad utilize wool fibers?

A: Premium wool fibers act as delicate fingers to get deep into scratches for better correction. The soft wool fibers also have strong finishing ability on most paint surfaces.

Q: Why should I prime the pad?

A: Priming the pad typically softens a fresh pad followed by a blow out which removes any loose particles and pushes the polish into the foam.

Q: Why does this pad not utilize a tapered edge?

A: The non-tapered edge allows a better line of sight and degree of control for edge work. Also minimizes the risk of bumping into other panels in tight areas.

Sheer cutting pad

This is a very gentle cutting pad when paired with x-foliate. As a rank amateur, I was really worried about ripping the paint right off my 2013 car's paint, but I had nothing to worry about. The gentleness gave me a lot more confidence since it makes marring your modern paint very difficult.

I ended up using this along with the Wafl pad to really bring back the deep, wet look and am amazed. I didn't get all the love marks out (I didn't want to be too aggressive my first attempt), but got out most of them and am very pleased with the results.
