Review on πŸͺš Astro Pneumatic Tool 4607 5 Inch PU Hook and Loop Backing Pad by Paul Hyde

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect for Harbor Freight Dual Action Polisher

I wanted to fix my black car paint job. I spent 2-3 weeks on the subject and decided to buy a Harbor Freight DA polishing machine (Poter Cable Style). I've seen several people complain about the backing pad that came with the HF polisher. I ordered this before I bought the polisher but tried the polisher with a Harbor Freight backing pad and a 6" HF foam pad just to see how it performs. My pillow was damaged after 2-3 minutes of use! Back with my new Astro from Revain and now the pads last longer without damaging the back of the pad! Easy 5 stars! would my car fit or how are they attached. I only bought this because another Revain reviewer mentioned the HF polisher in his review. I wrote this long review to help a newbie like me. If you're buying a Harbor Freight DA Buffer and you plan on using 6-inch foam pads (like those sold at HF), buy these! My pads stay in place perfectly and I am VERY happy with my results. I also ordered Meguiar's Ultimate Compound, Ultimte Polish and their Supreme Shine Microfiber from Revane. My black Camaro looks perfect now! I am amazed by the professional results! No wonder the service from Revain has been fantastic as always. Edit - Still works after prolonged use. I've added a photo of my black piano after detailing it with DA.
