A buffing pad assembly for use with a motorized drive tool comprising a cylindrical foam pad and a circular backing plate. The foam pad defines a front side and a back side and has a first circular layer of hook and loop type fastening material secured to the back side of the pad in axial alignment therewith. The layer of fastening material has a diameter less than the diameter of the pad and defines a centrally disposed aperture therein. The circular backing plate has a second circular layer of fastening material secured to the front side thereof in axial alignment therewith and having a centrally disposed aperture therein. The second circular layer of fastening material is adapted to abut and engage the first layer upon the pad being pressed against the plate, removably securing the pad to the plate. A centering member extends between the pad and the plate through the apertures in the first and second layers of fastening material for axially aligning the plate with the pad upon the pad being pressed against the plate. A threaded recess is provided in the back side of the plate for securing the plate to a motorized drive tool.
