Shorten or eliminate the compounding stage from your paint finishing process by using 8000-grade 3M™ Trizact™ Hookit™ Foam Abrasive Sheets before you polish. Used to refine 3000-grade or finer sand scratches, they leave a surface so smooth you can forget the compound and start polishing. They're the industry's first 8000-grade abrasives — built with a 3M technology nobody else has. Meet paint finishing's first 8000-grade abrasives – 3M™ Trizact™ Hookit™ Foam Abrasive Sheets. They allow body shop technicians to use a lighter sander instead of a heavier polisher for removing 3000-grade and finer sand scratches. These long-lasting sheets are used to refine very fine sand scratches, which were traditionally refined with compound and a pad. They leave a smooth surface and reduce the risk of swirl marks, burn through, and other defects. In many cases, the technician can eliminate compounding and begin polishing. 3M™ Trizact™ abrasives deliver long life and a consistent finish thanks to an exclusive 3M construction. These sheets have unique three-dimensional abrasive structures that expose fresh, sharp mineral as they wear. For best results, we recommend using 3M™ Trizact™ Abrasives with one of our 3M™ Perfect-It™ Paint Finishing systems. However, they can be used before any brand's pads and liquids.
- Refines 3000-grade and finer sand scratches, helping to reduce the need for aggressive compounding and lower overall paint finishing time
- Minimizes or eliminates compounding, helping to prevent heavy swirl marks, burn-through, and other defects caused by more aggressive processes
- A foam backing helps ensure proper control and consistent contact with the surface — great for preserving orange peel; use this sheet damp for longer life and less loading than dry sanding
- Allows technicians to use lighter orbital sanders for longer, rather than heavier polishers — as well as requiring less buffing time
- The 3M™ Trizact™ 3-dimensional mineral abrasive structures are uniformly distributed with multiple layers, meaning that as the structures wear, fresh, sharp mineral is exposed to keep the results consistent
- This sheet is part of the 3M™ Perfect-It™ Paint Finishing System and pairs with a variety of Perfect-It™ Brand products to create a range of solutions to deliver fast, defect-free results
- Utilizes a hook and loop-style Hookit™ backing that firmly connects the sheet while eliminating the dust and debris contamination that adhesive-backed abrasives can suffer from
- Available in 3-, 5-, and 6-inch diameter discs as well as 2 3/4 x 5 1/2-inch sheets
