Chemical Guys TORQ22D Dual-Action Backing Plate (5 Inch)

The TORQ22D Backing Plates are tailor made for the extra-long throw TORQ 22D and use a unique design for enhanced longevity, durability, and performance on any polishing and scrubbing detailing job.

Innovative Backing Plate Design

TORQ22D backing plates uses rugged synthetic materials for superior heat resistance and durability over extended polishing jobs. Bi-directional cooling channels funnel fresh air in to cool the buffing pad, backing plate, and machine polisher with every spin around the 22D machine. Dispersing heat from polishing extends the lifespan of buffing pads, backing plates, and the machine polisher itself.

Superior Engineering For Ultimate Versatility

The 22D makes short work of polishing paint, metal, optical plastic, and glass, but it can also scrub carpets, upholstery, and even restore headlights. Polishing large, flat panels like roofs, hoods, and doors is made easy with the 6’’ backing plate, but smaller and more contoured spots are easier to polish with the 5’’. Simply use the included hex key to swap backing plates to handle any job!
