  Lake Country 4", 5.5" and 6.5" Constant Pressure Technology Flat PadsThese Lake Country Constant Pressure Technology Flat Pads feature two additional design innovations.
First, they continue to incorporate the latest, Constant Pressure™ technology.
The constant pressure are great for polishing pads where you want a uniform and constant pressure on the surface being polished. Professionals have learned through experience to keep their machines parallel to the surface being polished. Tilting the machine in any direction can result in an uneven and excessive pressure being transferred to the painted surface.
The Blue "Constant Pressure" foam backing absorbs unwanted polishing motions. This new, patented, Constant Pressure technology uses a layer of engineered, instant rebound foam between the pad and the backing plate to absorb off-axis movements while keeping the pressure of the pad on the surface constant.
The other patented, innovation incorporated in these Constant Pressure Technology Flat Pads are a curved outer edge. The top edge is rounded (curvature) on the outer edge of the pad which allows easy transitions over seams and inclines without snagging.
We also pay attention to the back of the pad. Most pad manufacturers run the Hook and Backing material to the edge of the pad. This material is very course and can cause scratching if it hits the paint while working in tight spaces or around mirrors and wings.
To our specs, the Velcro brand fastening material was cut back 3/8 inch from the edge. This allows you to work right against corners, mirrors, wings and complex angles without fear of scratching the paintwork.
NOTE: The Gold Concours Finishing Pad does not have the Constant Pressure, blue foam layer. The gold foam is so soft it is not required.
