Product Description
The Venom Fat Boy Sponge Pads are professional surface-polishing and scratch-repair pads designed for fabrication shops and stone restoration technicians working on quartz, engineered stone, granite, marble, and natural stone.
Venom Fat Boy Sponge Pads were developed as a surface-first polishing system, built to handle scratch repair, seam blending, resurfacing, and polishing without the aggressive behavior or edge loading associated with traditional resin or hybrid polishing pads.
Using a diamond-sponge style fiber construction, Venom Fat Boy Sponge Pads distribute pressure evenly across the surface. This makes them especially effective for surface correction, blending, and final polishing, while reducing swirl marks, burn marks, and uneven sheen.
Venom Fat Boy Sponge Pads have been in the professional stone market for over six years and continue to gain traction with countertop shops and restoration professionals across the country.
Many fabricators first encounter Venom Fat Boy Sponge Pads through real-world demonstrations on YouTube, where professionals show actual polishing, resurfacing, and restoration techniques. Watching real technique is strongly recommended, as results depend on pressure control, water management, and grit selection.
The 5-inch size offers a balance between coverage and control, making it a popular option for surface refinement, blending, and polishing on countertops and flat stone areas.
Design & Performance
Built with a diamond-sponge style fiber construction, Venom Fat Boy Sponge Pads provide:
-
Consistent cutting action
-
High water retention
-
Smooth, forgiving surface contact
-
Excellent polishing clarity
This construction makes them ideal for fabrication environments and on-site restoration work, especially when surface control and uniform finish matter.
Primary Applications
-
Quartz surface polishing
-
Engineered stone restoration
-
Granite, marble, and natural stone polishing
-
Surface scratch repair and resurfacing
-
Seam blending
-
Face polishing
Although Venom Fat Boy Sponge Pads are surface-designed, many fabricators have discovered they can also be used successfully on inline polishers, edge machines, and backsplash polishers. This crossover use is technique-dependent and not the original design intent.
Large Slab & Floor Use (Other Sizes)
While this listing is for the 5-inch size, companies working on full-size slabs, commercial floors, and large restoration projects often use the 13-inch and 17-inch Venom Fat Boy Sponge Pads on floor machines to resurface and polish:
-
Large quartz slabs
-
Quartzite slabs
-
Granite slabs
-
Stone flooring
All Venom Fat Boy Sponge Pad sizes share the same sponge-backed surface polishing behavior.

Very Important Pro Tip – Use With Venom Bite Pads
Many countertop shops use Venom Bite Ceramic Resin 3-Step Pads together with Venom Fat Boy Sponge Pads.
Venom Bite pads use a ceramic resin formula designed for quartz and natural stone and are commonly used to assist with certain surface scratch correction and blending situations. Many professionals keep both systems available so they can choose the best approach based on surface condition.
Tips From the Pros
Many fabricators soak the pad in water for approximately 30 seconds before use.
This allows the sponge to fully absorb water, helps the pad run cooler, and promotes smoother polishing during wet use.
