Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Porter-Cable 6-inch polishing pad improves the performance of the 7424 polisher. Over time, the pad on a polisher wears from normal use, decreasing its performance. To keep your polisher running at its peak, replace the pad when it becomes worn. It mounts easily using the built in mounting thread.

Hi All I Just revied the portercable Orbirter, gave it 5 stars! this polishing head made for it by Porter Cable is the only one you want! Other Co. offer a velcro screw on head with Velcro polishing pads. we have found that the velcro doesnt last and hold!( my friend had problems with (the velcro) from only useing it for the second time in a two day period) as a result the pads went flying off the head. this is a fast way to damage your paint if the head with out a pad touches your car! buy plenty of them, (part # 54745) ... this will make your car/truck polishing job ten times easer with results that are un real! A SUPER SAFE SHINE!

I've not had any of the problems experienced by the earlier reviewer. I've used the original pad 2-3 times a year on two cars without problem. I moisten, but don't wash the pad. Used now for 3 years. Leaves a nice finish and almost effortless to use.

4.0 out of 5 stars Better than other loop&hook pads, March 31, 2006

I have tried several pads for this orbital buffer. Especially those sold by Griot's garage and I have to say that these original P/C pads work the best for me. They are soft enough, yet firm enough and much thicker than the other pads. One drawback is that they do not last any longer, but then they are cheaper than the hook and loop pads anyway.
