Does this have any padding? My polisher has a hard backing so I need a cloth that either has padding or is extremely thick.

The pad goes on a hard backing polisher. It is very thick. I use it on my boat for compounding. Very good pad made of wool.

This is a very thick pad. I use it with a hard but somewhat flexible backer.

The "wool" is attached to a fairly hard backing that I use by itself with no disk behind it. You do want it to flex a bit as you use it.

It only comes with that white foam one seen in the picture. When it comes to other pads it depends on your job but I ordered some Hex-Logic pads but they have different sizes and cutting powers to help with your different polishes and waxes throughout your job. So good luck figuring out what you want and need.

Maybe I'm not correct, but it seems that you are comparing this buffer to a complete meguiar's polishing kit, which has polish and buffing compounds, pads, and cloths included. This item is the buffer only. I have been satisfied with mine. I think it is a good buffer for the price paid. I have two other buffers and I prefer this one. It is light-weight, easy to use. You do need an extension cord to plug it in; it only has a one-foot cord,as do most buffers.

It's like a polisher. My son (for whom I purchased it) did not use the attached small tube for scratches, wanting to see what the stuff did. It did not cover scratches, so he'll have to use the small container. Has not done so yet.

It does not come with padding. Had to purchase padding through someone on ebay.....you can also check with your local dealer, or sometimes a salvage yard. But this product is for the covers only, but they are really great covers...Hope this helps

I would not risk damage to the clear coat. Besides, you can probably get a cheaper version at an auto supply store, that is made specifically for the degree of polishing you are looking for.

I've heard that there are some polishes other than the specific stamping polishes that work but they need to be thicker and it's pretty much trial and error. I recommend the ones designed for this though.

No it does not. If you are using this product as a single stage polish (stronger pad, more speed) it is always wise to tape trim

It comes with a base only no pads. I bought a couple of the pads recommended on the amazon page. One for application one for polishing.

I have never used the polishing cloth so I can't tell you if that would be better. I can tell you, however, that I use a separate one in different areas of the house. Hope this helps.

The consistency is kind of like SAE motor oil...just a little thicker but still kind of runny in compared to other polishes. You should be good~

I've been using this kind of cloth on my gold jewelry for over 30 years and all my jewelry still looks the same as it did when I bought it, so I would have to say NO to your question....

This polisher comes with a 6 inch backing plate. A 6.5 inch buffing pad will work fine. Just make sure the backing plate is 1/2 inch smaller then the buffing pad otherwise you will destroy your pads.

Yes. No other cloth works as well. Any other cloth I tried was too abrasive and left scratches. It is well worth the money if you value your paint job.

I don't know. It isn't labeled as such. It feels like emory cloth on a stiff backing. To be honest, I haven't had to use it yet on either size skrapr.

I'm sure you could do a small boat without a buffer and a lot of elbow grease, but mine was 21' with some pretty heavy oxidation and I wouldn't have wanted to do it without one. The Harbour Frieght DA Polisher is (~$60) is what I used with the Meguiars backing plate (W67DA - ~$20). Don't cheap out, if you get the polisher get the Meguiars backing plate and Meguiars pads...it's worth it. And the Meguiars pads are washable and reusable.

Yes each cloth can be used many times. This is the best polisher I have ever used.
