Know before you buy
This pad is specifically designed as a replacement for the FastCap SoftWax Kit. While it may physically fit other applications, it is optimized for the specific dimensions and material requirements of the SoftWax system.
No, this is strictly a replacement buffing pad. If you need wax, you will need to purchase the SoftWax Refill Sticks separately.
You should replace the pad once the surface becomes saturated with old wax, begins to lose its texture, or shows signs of fraying. A worn-out pad will no longer buff the wax to a smooth, professional finish.
Yes, this pad is intended to be used with the handle and base components found in the original SoftWax Kit. It is not designed to be used as a standalone tool.
