Abrasive Cleaning Disc Refills for Drills: Medium (Pack of 20)

A refill pack of 20 medium abrasive nylon cleaning discs for our Rapid Cleaning Kit and Ultimate Metal Cleaning and Polishing Kit. Medium (red) is the middle grade, for general cleaning and smoothing.

Use after the coarse discs, or on its own for general cleaning.

What’s in the pack

• 20 x medium abrasive cleaning discs (red)

What you can use it on

• Rust, grime and staining on steel, stainless, aluminium and brass
• Preparing metal for polishing
• Leaving an even satin finish
• Other durable surfaces; test first on softer materials

How to use it

1. Stack between one and six discs between the washers on your mandrel. More discs make a wider, firmer tool.
2. Tighten the reverse-thread nut and fit the mandrel into your drill.
3. Run at under 3,000 RPM and apply light pressure, keeping the discs moving.
4. Work from coarse to medium to fine for the best finish.

Good to know

• Needs a mandrel. One comes with our Rapid Cleaning Kit and Ultimate Metal Cleaning and Polishing Kit, and the discs also fit some other mandrels.
• The discs are designed to wear gradually. Avoid sharp corners, which wear them faster.
• Grades: coarse is brown, medium is red, fine is green.
