This is a set of 9 silicon carbide grit, Soft Touch Sanding Pads by Micromesh. The handy-sized square sanding pads will produce a mirror finish for many applications and are used by polymer clay bead jewellers, wood turners, pen turners, musical instrument makers, furniture restorers, and model makers and for small projects on woods, Vulcanite, acrylics, resin, paint, plastics, most metals and polymer clay.

The Micromesh sanding pads can be used wet or dry, but to preserve the pad's life, use wet with just a little pressure and dry thoroughly after use. Work your way through the grades to produce a smooth surface with a high-gloss finish.

Each 50mm x 50mm (2" x 2") sanding pad is colour-coded and double-sided, so you can use both sides. Washing them after each use makes them reusable.

The kit contains a reference card and one Micro-Mesh square of each of the following grits: 1500, 1800, 2400, 3200, 3600, 4000, 6000, 8000 & 12000.

The sanding pads are flexible and can therefore be manipulated and used folded up if required for use on smaller projects.

Description

Micro-Mesh sanding pads feature silicone carbide grit that you will find lasts longer than other sanding products. This is due to the construction of the abrasive, which prevents the abrasive crystals from fracturing and overheating.

"I really like these little pads and the fact that they are double sided is great. Wood turners would enjoy using these pads to polish. They're ideal to hold against a spinning cylindrical form. They have a place with the wood carver as well, I have two carvings that easily benefit from these pads; one a Tagua nut carving and a Whitby jet carving. You can really apply a high polish with these and I would definitely recommend them" - Jason Townsend. The Woodcarvers Gazette

"You can get a nice satin finish on silver a lot faster and a lot more even than with conventional papers.They're flexible which is really useful for flat and curved shapes, you've got the edges and the corners too, and when they do get dirty you just flip it over and you've got the other side as well. A really, really great set and I highly recommend them" - Dave Wilson. Celtic Dreams

Helpful Note: Sand to a uniform level first then begin by using the 1500 grit and work your way through the grades to 12000.
