You’re prolly going to need to do some pretty intense beginner development, but it’ll be good for you!

Basically, you’re gonna want to copy the current page template and add just one more class tag to the wrapper and apply your custom padding to that.
I strongly suggest starting by making a child theme: http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Child_Themes
Note:
This is gonna seem overwhelming, but once you understand child themeing and creating page templates, you’re gonna have a much deeper understanding of how wordpress works. Enjoy!
thanks, i am already using a child theme. Just was not sure how to target an individual page.
You could also use the .page-id class that’s already in the <body> tag of the specific page.
I was about to suggest that. Can you post a link the the page you want to change? I’ll write the CSS you need to change just that page’s padding.
thank you, but i can’t post a link because it’s a local install and unfinished… can you give more detail on how to use the page-id class in the body tag of a specific page??
If you look at the site using Firebug or Chrome Developer Tools the body tag will look like this:
<body class="page page-id-725
Use the page-id class in css to specify the page on which you want to adjust the padding:
.page-id-725 #wrapper .pad { padding: 30px 30px 20px; }
