3M 3100 Aqua Burnishing Floor Pads, 20 Inch, 5 Pads Per Case

Engineered for ultra high speed floor machines running at 1,500 RPM and above, the 3M 3100 Aqua Burnishing Pad delivers a noticeable gloss improvement across a wide range of hard floor surfaces. Built from nylon and polyester fibers laid into a non-woven web with resins bonded throughout the structure, this pad holds up under demanding daily use while maintaining consistent buffing performance. The resin-bonded fiber construction resists glazing and clogging, extending service life well beyond conventional floor pads and reducing changeout frequency on busy maintenance routes.

Uses

Use these pads for daily floor maintenance, light scrubbing, spray buffing, and restoring gloss between deeper cleaning cycles on compatible hard floor surfaces.

Use the 3100 Aqua pad for routine buffing passes and limited spray cleaning on electric, battery, or propane ultra high speed machines. It produces a smooth, high-gloss finish on VCT, LVT, VAT, sheet vinyl, linoleum, asphalt asbestos tile, rubber, cork, natural stone, and terrazzo, making it a versatile single-pad choice for facilities with mixed flooring types.
