Refine. Prep. Coat. A ceramic coating is only as durable as the surface it bonds to — and any residual oil, filler, or contamination left on the surface kills durability before the coating even cures. Refine Pad is the light-cut pad built for that final prep step. Loaded with Prime X, it strips polishing oils, residual fillers, light haze, and surface contamination — leaving a chemically clean substrate ready for Solar Flare or Final Flash. With Ultima, it doubles as a light-defect finishing pad for already-clean paint. The pad that decides whether a ceramic actually holds. Key Features: Light cut performance — built specifically for Prime X pre-coating prep Strips polishing residue, fillers, and contamination for max ceramic bond Also runs Ultima for finishing on light-defect paint Velcro hook-and-loop backing — fast swaps, no slip Built for marine gel coat, automotive paint, and RV ceramic prep Engineered for detailers Made in the USA How to Use: Load 6-10 pea-sized drops of Prime X onto the Refine Pad. Run a DA polisher at speed 3-4 with light pressure in 2x2 ft sections. Immediately wipe with a clean microfiber — do not allow product to dry. Inspect under bright light to confirm a residue-free surface. Apply Solar Flare ceramic within 30 minutes. Best paired with Prime X and Ultima.
