Buff and Shine Standard Orbital Foam Blue Heavy Cut Pad Reviews
Professional Detailer Reviews
My initial impressions of the Uro-Tec product line is that it seems like a great set of pads, and I really enjoyed using them. They remind me quite a bit of the Rupes foam pads which I had really grown to like in the past, especially the yellow polishing pads and white finishing pads. While the majority of my pad collection still consists of the traditional foam "flat pads", I anticipate purchasing more of the newly designed pads such as the ones found in the Uro-Tech line moving forward.

This is about the same exact foam as the Rupes coarse blue pad. It is rigid, and extremely coarse to the touch. In fact, upon first contact, you'd think it is the LAST thing you would ever want touching your paint..... Unless the paint was a total mess, in which case you might welcome the pad's aggressive nature.
A lot of people don't like this pad. It is stiff, it takes a bit of time and effort to break in, it starts to fray soon after use, it slings product, etc...
But if you can get past the initial acquaintance period you'll find a pad that runs very cool, doesn't require much if any pressure to cut, a pad that will be very difficult to clog, a pad that leaves a very nice finish, a pad that gets excellent rotation, and a pad that is easy to clean out.
I've been using these lately with 3D One, or Rupes Quarz Gloss on an old school Porter Cable 7424, in sizes 3", 5.5", and 6" from speeds 4 - 5.
