Scotch-Brite™ light coating removal disc removes light, unwanted coatings from your substrate. Be it paint, rust, sealant or varnish, the unique properties of Scotch-Brite™ non-woven technology, like load resistance, make this abrasive a good match for these projects. The abrasive is designed to fight dust and debris, so you can remove coatings and get consistent results, part after part. The Scotch-Brite™ light coating removal disc has all the benefits industrial professionals have come to expect from Scotch-Brite™ products - including non-woven technology, responsive open web and consistent results. What sets it apart is the medium grade aluminum oxide mineral. This particular grade and type of mineral make the light coating removal disc suited for applications like coating removal, paint stripping and rust removal. The reason medium grade aluminum oxide is a good match for these applications is because it balances strength with finesse, striking a balance between sharp cut and fine finish. Aluminum oxide is a popular choice among industrial professionals because of its fast cut rate and long life. It is sharp, durable and cuts fast while maintaining the geometry of the part. Industrial professionals who are familiar with our line of Scotch-Brite™ products understand the benefits of the unique non-woven technology. Load resistance is a key benefit of non-woven technology and it is especially desirable during applications like paint and rust removal, as these projects tend to generate lots of dust and debris. Our Scotch-Brite™ light coating removal disc is commonly used on thin coatings, like rust or varnish and may be attached to a right angle grinder. Non-woven technology makes Scotch-Brite™ abrasives unique. Abrasive mineral is interspersed on synthetic fibers using resin - creating an open web construction. Spaces between the fibers permit excess dust and debris to escape, so the mineral does not get clogged or worn down by debris. It keeps the mineral cutting sharper longer, enhancing cut performance and increasing abrasive service life. The spring-like nature of the fibers works well on contours and responds to surface subtleties. Open web abrasives' responsive design effectively removes unwanted burrs, soils and contaminants without ruining the base material, so you get a consistent and uniform finish - part after part. Scotch-Brite™ light coating removal disc features a hook and loop backing that's designed to work with 3M™ hook and loop backup pads (sold separately). Lofty, cushiony loops on the abrasive disc fasten to hooks on the backup pad. Disc to power tool attachment becomes swift, easy and secure with these convenient mechanisms in place. Instead of spending time tinkering with or manipulating attachment parts, operators can focus on the most important task at hand: their work.
