I wouldn’t recommend it. For one thing they’d be expensive for carpet care. And they contain abrasives that won’t be good for carpet fiber. I’d stick with the FiberPlus or FiberPlus Max for carpet and use the Diamond pads for stone, terrazzo, marble, concrete floor polishing.

The 8 inch Diamond plus pads are great but only for hard surface maintenance and removal of light scratches on marble/stone. They are diamond impregnated (400 grit- 6000 grit) so they would be too aggressive for carpet and would definitely scratch the fibers.
