1.1 producto másview

The 3M 10144 Between Coats Finishing Pads are designed for achieving a smooth, refined surface between applications of paint, varnish, or other finishes. These durable pads are suitable for both wet and dry applications, helping to remove minor imperfections and prepare the surface for subsequent coats.

1.2 Uso previsto

These finishing pads are specifically engineered for light abrasion between coats of various finishes on wood, metal, and other surfaces. They are ideal for removing dust nibs, minor blemishes, and for creating a uniform surface profile to enhance adhesion of the next coat.

2. Configuración y preparación

• Ensure the surface is clean and free of loose debris.
• For wet sanding, have a clean water source available.
• Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), such as gloves and eye protection, especially when working with chemicals or producing fine dust.

3.1 How to Use the Finishing Pads

Dry Application

1. Hold the pad firmly and flat against the surface.
2. Aplique una presión ligera y uniforme.
3. Move the pad in the direction of the grain for wood surfaces, or in a consistent pattern for other materials.
4. Continue until the desired smoothness is achieved and minor imperfections are removed.
5. Wipe the surface clean with a tack cloth or lint-free cloth to remove any sanding dust before applying the next coat.

Wet Application

1. Dampen the pad and the surface with water.
2. Apply light, even pressure, moving the pad in a consistent pattern.
3. The water helps to lubricate the surface and flush away sanding debris, reducing clogging and creating a finer finish.
4. Rinse the pad frequently to remove accumulated material.
5. After sanding, thoroughly clean and dry the surface before applying the next coat.

3.2 Between Coats Finishing

The fine grit of these pads (equivalent to 240 grit sandpaper) is designed to gently abrade the previous finish coat without removing significant material. This process creates a microscopic "tooth" for the subsequent coat to adhere to, improving overall finish durability and appearance.
