Micro-Mesh Cushioned Abrasives

Item #

Rating:
96% of 100
(52)

Washable and reusable abrasives are great for sanding small projects on the lathe! Unique cushioning design results in extended abrasive life, the best surface finish possible, and fewer steps. Conforms to the shape while providing even pressure against the surface. Backed with a flexible cloth, large micron-graded silicone carbide crystals recede to an even planing level as they establish each successively finer scratch pattern. Using water as a lubricant is encouraged to extend abrasive life and cool the work surface.Can be washed, dried, and reused again and again!

These things are awesome! I use them to wet sand/polish a CA pen finish and so far everyone I have done has been great! I tried a competitor and it is evident that the original MM is far superior!

Excellent for finishing pens
Pads take over where sandpaper leaves off. Still new to using but they seem to last.

Plastic Polish Magic Pads
These pads are great! I used them to wet sand acrylic pen blanks. They take out scratches, after finishing turning the blanks on the lathe.

Nice product, wish I bought a larger size
Leaves a very polished finish, looks like I put a finish on but it's just sandpaper. Would buy again in a larger size

Which Micro Mesh product is this set of pads? AO? Regular? or MX?
John T on Nov 16, 2015
BEST ANSWER: These are regular.
How wet do they have to be when using on acrylic pen blanks?
A shopper on Jun 13, 2015
BEST ANSWER: As wet as you can get them. Don't be shy about soaking the pads and I put a cloth under my blanks on the lathe carriage to catch any water drips. Also don't forget to wipe your blank after each pad to remove the sanding dust and prevent re scratching of your blank.
