Makita7 Hook And Loop Back Up Pad (743052-5)

When it came time for getting my wife a replacement buffing pad I went with one I was familiar with. It might not be the single cheapest, but it is very reasonably priced. And having used them I knew it would work well for her finishing of her '65 Mustang restoration.She had been using high-end stuff, but it wasn't hers and when it came time for having her own I told her it was silly to pay three times as much. So when I saw what she was considering I asked to just give the Makita a try, and if she didn't like it I would use it and she could pay a lot more. I think she finished last night and said it worked great.There are a lot of these on the market and maybe they all work fine. I just wanted her to try a product I know works, and it has for her as well. I think the combination of the two is very decently priced.

This Pad worked perfectly.. I actually use it a sanding pad instead of a polisher with my angle grinder. I used the sticky circular sandpaper without the holes that you can purchase at your local hardware store. The pads stick to it perfectly even at high RPMs. This is a great pad I highly recommend, very solid construction.

I used this to burn through something like 25 coarse sheets of sandpaper in a day and the backing never melted or lost the ability to hold onto paper. I might order another one just to have a spare. Great tool.

Works as it should

I use the 743052-5 hook and loop backup with my Makita 9227C sander / Polisher to to clean and polish the limestone travertine floors in my home in Granite Bay as well as the marble floors and shower walls in my Hawaii condo. I order the very inexpensive cleaning and polishing pads as well as polishing cream from Regent Stone Products through AMAZON. The online documentation at Regent Stone discusses the different pads which ones to use for different tasks. It is easy to do and saves a lot of money over having someone come in to do the work.The Makita 743052-5 hook and loop backup really works well and does a great job. However the pad itself is made of wood and it is possible to put too much pressure on the pad when cleaning or polishing a floor and breaking the wooden pad. I break a pad once every couple of years. So I always order three backups when I order pads. The fact I break a pad every couple of years is the only reason I give them 4*s instead of 5*s.Hope this helps you.

Fit like a glove on the Kawasaki 840581 11 Amp 7-Inch Sander and Polisher I purchased to do this job......... Buffed my entire vehicle. Be sure to tape all you sharp edges prior to buffing or it will burn through the topcoat. All the loop backed pads fit and worked with out incident. Quality product, well packed and lightning fast shipping. *****

The last one I had lasted me about 12 years I used it approximately once a month to buff my Pick up truck.

This item is a must for velcro style pads. If you ever drop the unit the pad trueness may be altered throwing it out of balance. After heavy usage, the black velcro hook layer separates from te foam core causing pad retention problems. This pad yields good useful life.
