Butt buffer?

Greg336 · Feb 21, 2020

Can anyone tell me exactly what the pad inside is and made of? I have a butt buffer and like it but I would like to buy more of the pad so I can replace the foam in my seat and make it entirely out of the padding in the butt buffer.

Thanks for your time,

Greg

Go to Walmart and look in the automotive section for an auto seat cushion. They are a black mesh, but are filled with a gel like filler. I insert two of the gel's in one cushion. Been doing it for a long time. They are in the ballpark of $25. at Walmart.

I have a Airhawk Seat Cushion. You can change up the ride by changing the amount of air.

The Stallion seat is not gel...It's filled with mortar or a similar material.

I'm guessing that's not the kind of motor I am used to ... ouch. :AGGHH:

+1 on the air hawk ... thanks Carla ... I have a gel pad similar to the air hawk ... no comparison on comfort to the air hawk

From the Butt Buffer site:

Butt Buffer’s seat cushions use a visco-elastic polymer for their cushioning. This core was originally developed for hospital use to prevent bed sores in patients. The dry polymer core in a Butt Buffer never fully compresses. This gives uncompromised balance to your ride and removes pressure points that develop from sitting for long periods.

So, some form of gel for sure, the wife uses one and loves it.
