Garnet is a natural mineral obtained from Mother Nature and is known for its ability to produce the best quality wood finishes. This product is coated on a heavy Mylar backing allowing for heavy sanding without breaking down or tearing. When sanding and finishing soft balsa or exotic hardwoods, Alpha’s garnet files are superior. This product has a large tapered shape giving it more sanding area and a longer life. Each package contains 2 files with a grit combination of 80/180.
Made with the same abrasives as our Micro Fine Waterproof Sheets, these micro fine files bring a new dimension to surface preparation. Use these files to prepare surfaces before painting or to remove orange peel from a painted surface. The cushioned foam design conforms to curved surfaces allowing you to get into hard to reach areas. The assorted package contains 1 file of each 1000, 2000, 4000, 6000, and 12000 grit.
Contents: 5 files per pack
Size: 6 1/2” X 3/4”
New! Double sided abrasive laminated to a resilient foam core conforms easily to curved surfaces. Convenient 2” X 2” size pads are printed with the grit number for easy identification and are reusable. When used dry, microcloth outlasts common abrasives up to 7 times, when used wet microcloth outlasts up to 10 times.
Micro finishing products are not intended for heavy removal, rather, this product helps obtain a professional final finish. When more aggressive sanding is required to remove scratches and defects, Professional Sanding Film P/N 0201 is recommended before the micro finishing cloth process. Sanding blocks are not required when using our extra flexible Micro Cloth Pads.
Size: 2” x 2”
Contents: 1 Micro Abrasive Pad of each 3200, 3600, 4000, 6000, 8000, 12000 grit
New! The 3” X 4” sheet size provides a large working surface and extended product life. Our formulation gives superior water resistance, softer cushion coating, and greater flexibility. Our colour coded back printing makes easy grit identification possible, now you know exactly which grit you are using! Micro Finishing Cloth can be used wet or dry, for best results a light mist of water containing a drop of dish detergent for lubrication is recommended. This product is ideal for removing “orange peel” from painted surfaces, polishing metal, wood, and plastic projects.
Size: 3” x 4”
Contents: 1 Cloth Abrasive Sheet of each 3200, 3600, 4000, 6000, 8000, 12000 grit and a double density 2”X 3” foam back up pad.
New! This is the perfect system for serious polishing. Our unique 2” X 8” cloth is especially suited for polishing plastic surfaces. Unlike common abrasives, Micro Cloth produces a fine even scratch pattern without creating deep uneven scratches which are difficult to remove. Micro Cloth is made with a special cushion layer that allows the abrasive crystals to float, allowing abrasives to produce a finer more consistent pattern. This Micro Finishing kit includes our unique foam sanding block. This block has two different density foams laminated to a resilient foam core. For curved and delicate areas, use the soft foam side. For areas that require more aggressive action, select the medium density side. This product can be used wet or dry on plastic, wood, metal, and resin projects.
Size: 2” x 8”
