Built for Detail Work

3 inch size goes where larger discs cannot

The compact 3 inch diameter makes these discs well suited to tight curves, headlight housings and smaller plastic panels where a 5 or 6 inch disc would be too clumsy. Pair them with a matching 3 inch backing pad on your DA or rotary and you have precise, repeatable material removal in a controlled footprint.

Questions

Frequently asked

What grit levels are available?

These discs come in P400, P600 and P1200. P400 is suited to stock removal and cutting through oxidation or heavy scratches. P600 refines the surface after the coarser pass. P1200 is a finishing grit used before compounding or polishing.

What backing pad does the 3 inch disc fit?

The discs use a standard hook-and-loop (velcro) backing, so they attach to any 3 inch hook-and-loop backing pad used on a rotary or DA polisher. Make sure your backing pad is also 3 inches for a flush, even fit.

Why no holes in the disc?

The no-hole design gives you an uninterrupted abrasive face across the full 3 inch surface. This is particularly useful on small, curved surfaces like headlight lenses where a dust-extraction hole could create uneven sanding patterns.

Can I use these discs on headlights?

Yes, headlight restoration is one of the primary uses. Start with P400 or P600 to remove yellowing and oxidation, then move to P1200 to refine the surface before following up with a cutting compound and polish to restore clarity.

Are these discs suitable for use on car paint?

These discs are listed for plastics, wood and metalwork. If you are wet-sanding paint, P1200 can be used carefully on hard clear coats, but always verify on a test area first. They are not designed specifically as automotive paint wet-sanding discs.

Can I use these wet or dry?

The product description does not specify wet-or-dry capability. For headlight work and general plastic sanding, dry use is standard. If you intend to wet-sand, test a single disc first to confirm the abrasive and backing hold up with water.

How do I get the best result when sanding headlights?

Work in overlapping strokes at a consistent speed. Start with P400 to remove heavy oxidation and yellowing, then follow with P600 to remove the P400 scratches, and finish with P1200 to leave a uniform, fine haze. From there, a cutting compound and a polishing stage will restore optical clarity.

What machine is recommended to use these with?

A DA (dual-action) polisher or a rotary with a 3 inch backing pad works well for consistent, controlled sanding. Hand sanding is also possible with a 3 inch foam or rubber hand block that accepts velcro discs. Keep pressure even to avoid creating low spots, especially on curved surfaces.
