  "summary": "The 3KFWY is a compact yellow knitted-wool pad for polishing and one-step correction in restricted areas. Its dark-yellow 0.5-inch foam interface moderates the wool's cut, while the 0.5-inch pile and beveled edge help control contact around small contours.",

        "Its three-inch format is suited to local repair zones, pillars, bumpers and curved details where a large pad cannot maintain even contact. The beveled edge provides clearance near contours but should not be used as a substitute for careful machine control."
