Weha Donkey Face Polish & Inline Polishing Pads

Weha Donkey Surface Polishing Pads (formerly known as Monkey Pads – same pad, new name) are premium diamond sponge polishing pads designed for quartz, engineered stone, marble, granite, and other natural stone surfaces. Available in multiple diameters and full grit sequences, Donkey Pads are specifically engineered for surface repair, scratch removal, seam blending, and texture matching.

These hook & loop backed surface polishing pads are ideal for in-shop fabrication as well as in-home repair work. The unique diamond sponge matrix holds a significant amount of water, making them especially effective for interior repairs where water access is limited.

Material Compatibility

Quartz & Engineered Stone, Granite, Marble, Natural Stone Surfaces.

Applications

Quartz scratch repair, Seam blending, Surface texture matching, Marble etch mark removal, Granite surface repair, Edge touch-up polishing.

How to Use – Quartz & Engineered Stone

For scratch removal, begin with a standard surface polishing system such as a 3-step or 7-step diamond pad sequence using a rigid backup pad. After completing the initial polishing steps, transition into the Donkey grit sequence starting at the appropriate grit (typically 600), then progressing upward (1000, 2000, 3000, and 6000 if necessary) using a fanning technique to blend the repair area into the surrounding surface.

How to Use – Marble

For etch mark removal and surface refinishing, begin with a lower grit Donkey pad (typically 600) at low RPM. Progress through finer grits as needed to restore gloss and match the surrounding finish.

How to Use – Granite

Start with a standard diamond polishing sequence to remove damage. Then transition into the Donkey pad progression beginning at the appropriate grit and working upward until the finish matches the factory polish.

Operating Recommendations

Recommended RPM: 800–1200 RPM (Do not exceed 1200 RPM)
Use a consistent fanning pattern to blend repairs
For interior jobs, soak pads in water for at least 20 minutes prior to use to maximize water retention
