Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between sponges and scour pads?
Sponges combine an absorbent layer with a scrubbing surface, making them useful for wiping and scouring. Scour pads are abrasive hand pads intended for loosening residue.
How do I choose 3M polishing pads?
Select a floor pad that matches the machine diameter and maintenance task, or choose a griddle polishing pad made for flat-top equipment. Confirm the recommended surface, operating conditions, and care instructions in the product specifications.
Are 3M sponges and scour pads disposable?
They're consumable items, but not every product is single-use. Some pads and sponges can be cleaned or sanitized between uses, then discarded when worn or heavily soiled. Follow the item's care directions and your facility's sanitation procedures.
