What to Check Before Buying
Lens and coating
Tell the supplier which lens materials and coatings you process. Request an appropriate pad recommendation rather than assuming one grade fits all lenses.
Equipment fit
Confirm pad shape, blocking interface, suction cup style or drill dimensions against your equipment.
Trial batch
Evaluate a sample batch under your actual processing conditions and record the result before ordering production quantities.
Packing and storage
Ask for pack quantities, storage instructions and any applicable shelf-life information.
