Product Description
Milwaukee 3 in. Yellow Foam Polishing Pad — 5 Pack
Model Number: 49-36-5790
The Milwaukee 49-36-5790 is a 5-pack of 3 in. Yellow Foam Polishing Pads for the Milwaukee M12 Cordless Polisher/Sander — a multi-pad supply of the mid-stage polishing pad in the yellow foam specification for the polishing phase of multi-step automotive paint correction and detailing work on the compact M12 platform. The yellow foam polishing pad occupies the intermediate stage in professional polishing progressions — following more aggressive cutting pads that remove defects, and preceding the soft black foam finishing pad used for final gloss refinement. The yellow foam compound provides a moderate cut level that refines and smooths the surface after heavy correction work, removing the swirl marks and light scratches left by the cutting stage while preparing the surface for the final finishing pass with a soft foam pad and finishing polish. In professional detailing systems, yellow typically designates a medium-cut polishing foam matched to medium polishing compounds for progressive surface refinement.
The 5-pack provides sustained pad supply for professional detailers who perform paint corrections on multiple vehicles or surfaces per session — maintaining clean pad performance with multiple pads available for rotation and cleaning between correction passes to prevent compound residue contamination of subsequent polishing stages. The 3 in. diameter matches the Milwaukee M12 Polisher/Sander's backing plate for correct pad coverage and speed distribution, and the 5-pack provides the most economical per-pad cost for professional production polishing work on the M12 platform. Replace individual pads when foam cell structure compresses beyond recovery or foam tears from sustained polishing use.
