The ShineMate FlexEdge V3 Rotary backing plate is built for precision work on tight, intricate areas where larger plates can’t reach.

This latest generation of ShineMate FlexEdge is a small-format rotary backing plate designed to handle intricate zones such as boot lids, handles, bumpers, and contoured panels. With ShineMate’s FlexEdge technology, the plate flexes slightly at the edge to follow bodylines and curved surfaces, delivering a smoother finish with reduced risk of burn-through.

Each ShineMate backing plate is manufactured using PUR molding for vibration absorption and balance, keeping your rotary steady and comfortable to run even on delicate areas. Long-life Velcro ensures pads stay locked in under pressure while still peeling away cleanly. Suitable for use with foam, wool, or microfiber pads, it works as a versatile DA polisher backing plate alternative for rotary users who need precision in small spaces.

By improving pad thermoregulation and allowing consistent pressure distribution, the FlexEdge V3 helps extend pad life and maintain performance. Whether you need a car backing plate for correction, refinement, or finishing, this compact design brings control and durability to your rotary.
