Since I didn't buy any new finishing pads, I took one of my old 7.5" finishing pads (they are still good, because I rarely used them), centered the 5" backing plate on the pad and cut around the backing plate until I ended up with a 5.5" / 5.75" finishing pad. I've already checked and the backing plate can't come in contact with the paint while buffing. So now if I care to I have a wax application pad.

Nice. I have seen Mike Phillips cut a microfiber cutting disk to make 4 2" pads.

I think I'm going to clean up some of my polishing/cutting pads and make hand applicators for the areas the buffer wont reachDon
