Product Overview
Time to Polish
The thick, open-web fibers of our Scotch-Brite™ Super Polish Disc are buoyant, flexible and responsive. This means the Scotch-Brite™ Super Polish Disc will cut consistently without rigidity and refrain from gouging, marring or damaging the surface. It delivers a nice scratch pattern when used appropriately with a solvent. Customarily, when removing surface imperfections – like bubbles or contaminants – from substrates such as wood, a multi-step process occurs. First, a tough abrasive aggressively sands and abrades the surface, so the porosity of the surface is reduced. This helps with even application of a lacquer later on. Then, after achieving the desired finish and removing imperfections, a polishing abrasive helps to infuse the substrate with a lasting glow. A satin polish, for example, will likely fall somewhere in between a flat or glossy appearance. Our Scotch-Brite™ Super Polish Disc delivers during the second phase.
In addition to being flexible and buoyant, our Scotch-Brite™ Super Polish Disc holds polishes and compounds and distributes them evenly while working the surface. Talc is incorporated into the non-woven fibers of our Scotch-Brite™ Super Polish Disc to enhance its polishing capability. As the fibers wear, fresh talc is exposed to provide a consistent finish throughout the life of the product. In woodworking, this material can be used with polish to create a satin finish in topcoat rubbing applications.
