Constructed from 4-ply twisted wool fibers, the pad delivers the aggressive mechanical cutting action needed to strip severe chalking, heavy salt-air oxidation, and deep scratches from weathered fiberglass hulls and topsides. The dense, high-durability wool construction resists matting even under heavy compounding pastes and liquids, so the pad holds its cutting performance through extended detailing sessions on large hull surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis pad is engineered specifically for use with high-torque rotary marine polishers and is not compatible with dual action machines. Its uniform leveling action provides stable, consistent surface tracking across broad hulls, curved strakes, and topside contours, making it well suited to yacht-scale detailing jobs where efficient coverage matters. It is intended as the baseline compounding step in a multi-step marine detailing workflow, used before moving on to glazing or waxing steps to bring back a smooth, restored finish on oxidized or heavily weathered gelcoat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shurhold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e YBP-5112\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compounding \/ Buffing Pad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePad Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7-1\/2 inches x 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4-ply twisted wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13 x 9.1 x 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.43125 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Tools:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-torque rotary marine polishers (not compatible with dual action machines)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heavy-cut compounding for marine gelcoat and fiberglass restoration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 703485120354\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Shurhold YBP-5112 Super Cut Compounding Pad used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a heavy-cut wool compounding pad used as the first stage of marine gelcoat restoration, designed to strip severe chalking, heavy salt-air oxidation, and deep scratches from weathered fiberglass hulls and topsides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this pad work with a dual action polisher?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The YBP-5112 is engineered specifically for high-torque rotary marine polishers and is not compatible with dual action machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the Super Cut Compounding Pad made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made from 4-ply twisted wool fibers, chosen for the aggressive cutting action needed on hard marine gelcoat finishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is the YBP-5112 pad?\u003c\/strong\u003e The pad measures 7-1\/2 inches by 1 inch, with a shipped product dimension of 13 x 9.1 x 1.5 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the YBP-5112 weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Shurhold YBP-5112 weighs 0.43125 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the wool pad mat down during heavy compounding?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 4-ply twisted wool fibers are built to resist matting even under heavy marine compounding pastes and liquids, so the pad keeps its cutting performance through extended sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this pad suitable for use on large boat hulls?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.
