Expert Tips

Small Finishing Improvements That Deliver Better Results

Many surface finishing issues occur because the wrong grit is selected for the application.

To improve finish quality:

► Start with a coarser grit when removing heavy material
► Progress to finer grits for finishing work
► Allow the abrasive to do the work without excessive pressure
► Replace worn discs before finish quality declines
► Keep surfaces clean before finishing
► Match flap disc type to the material being worked
► Use dedicated discs for stainless steel applications where required

These simple practices help improve finish consistency while extending accessory life.
