- Teal foam buffs out lighter defects and refines surfaces after correction (Cut Rating: 6/10)
- ARC Technology responds dynamically to changing panel curves and contours maintaining consistent contact with the surface.
- Balanced pressure distribution and integrated vibration dampening reduce the effort and vibration transferred to your hands and arms.
- Durable foam built for lasting, consistent performance.
- ARC Grey Heavy Correcting Foam Pads are also available in: 1.5", 2.5", 3.5", 5.5" and 7.5" diameters.
Lake Country ARC Foam Pads give you more contact and control with less effort! Powered by Adaptive Radial Control (ARC) Technology, these foam pads respond dynamically to changing panel shapes and polishing conditions for smoother, more predictable performance. They feature a precision cutaway profile designed to maintain consistent contact with curves and contours.
ARC pads start with a precision cutaway profile that changes how the foam responds under load. Combined with conformable foam construction and a shock-absorbing design, the cutaway gives the pad more flexibility to respond in multiple directions as it travels across the surface.
This controlled compliance helps ARC Pads stay engaged with the panel, distribute polishing forces more evenly and absorb energy for smoother machine movement and more consistent results.
The Four Pillars of ARC Performance:
- Contact - Maintain more consistent pad-to-paint engagement across curves and contours. ARC's multi-axis foam compliance and flexible edge profile help the pad follow changing panel geometry without concentrating pressure at the outer edge.
- Comfort - Polish longer with less operator fatigue. Balanced pressure distribution and integrated vibration dampening reduce the effort and vibration transferred to your hands and arms during extended polishing sessions.
- Control - Get smoother, more predictable machine handling. Torsional compliance, reduced drag and controlled orbital stability help ARC Pads move naturally under load while reducing hopping, skipping and wandering.
- Durability - Built for lasting, consistent performance. High-resilience foam construction is engineered for long service life while maintaining the predictable response detailers expect.
Lake Country's ARC Foam Pads deliver predictable performance with both rotary and random orbital DA polishers, giving detailers greater versatility across polishing applications. Controlled compliance also creates a more forgiving polishing experience while maintaining the control experienced professionals expect.
Their open-cell foam construction and Lake Country's CCS Technology help dissipate heat during use, reducing the chance of excessive temperature build up in the pad and at the paint surface.
ARC Pads improve comfort and reduces hand and arm fatigue, while the recessed profile helps the surface ride edges easier. These features help create a user-friendly experience with impressive results while offering the performance benefits demanded by professionals!
