CALLING ALL MARINE DETAILERS
In early 2027 we’re giving to you our Super and Elite Series ultra high thermal stability foams free of charge so you can put them through the sort of work that exposes weak foam very quickly.
Long polishing sessions, heavy pressure, heat that it takes to get marine paints corrected
Then tell me how long they actually last.
HIGH THERMAL STABILITY
Marine polishing can generate a serious amount of heat, especially when you’re working large panels for extended periods.
The Elite Series foams we have coming have been developed with a far higher density and improved thermal stability, helping it retain its working characteristics for longer rather than progressively softening as the pad heats up.
That means more consistent pad behaviour, more consistent cutting action and less time throwing away pads because the foam has gone soft.
Density: approximately 2 to 5 x the market average
Elongation: far higher
Tensile strength: substantially higher than typical market foams
THE FOAM ACTUALLY BOUNCES BACK
One of the problems I’ve seen repeatedly with polishing pads is permanent compression.
The pad gets hot, gets loaded up with too many residue, worked hard with alot of pressure and eventually starts to pancake. Once that happens, the pad no longer behaves the way it did when you first put it on the polisher
The Elite Series uses an anti-flattening design unique to the pad king which resists loss of firmness
That means the pad can maintain its shape and working characteristics for considerably longer.
Less flattening. Less foam fatigue. Longer pad life.
THIS IS WHERE I WANT YOUR FEEDBACK
I’ve spent decades polishing and testing foam, adhesives and pad construction because the real test of a polishing pad isn't how good it looks when it comes out of the box.
It’s what happens after hours of polishing.
So if you’re a marine detailer and you’re prepared to really work these pads, I want to hear from you and find out
How many boats or yachts did you get out of a set
How many panels?
How much heat?
How long did the foam retain its original characteristics?
Put them through their paces and tell me what you find.
The Pad King brand exists to break new ground to evolve and revolutionise polishing pad design, technology and paint correction capabilities - saving you time, money and hard labour
Every pad i sell gets me closer to my goal of bringing even more thermally durable and versatile pads to the market
