Foam polishing pads by pad diameter: pad sizes match the contact area to the shape of the panel. The outer diameter of the pad sets the working face; the backing plate size that goes with it and the machine approval are separate things to check.
Pad diameter and backing plate size get checked separately, so the working face suits both the machine and the panel.
