Abstract:
A polymeric foam buffing pad is made from a foam preform that has a convex outer working surface slit and compressed. Preferably, the working face is slit to form a pattern of foam fingers. The slit convex preform is flattened to place the outer working surface in compression and the flattened pad is attached, in use, to a flat backing surface to maintain the compressed surface state. The invention can also be applied to an unslit preform.
