3M Clean and Finish Roll (CF-RL) - 5.5" x 30 ft - A VFN Grade - Premium Sanding Rolls for Woodworking, Metal Finishing & DIY Projects - Perfect for Surface Preparation, Paint Removal & Smoothing

Load resistance keeps the abrasive particles exposed to maintain a consistent cut rate. Our general purpose pad can be cut and used by hand for precise control. Wider width stock can be cut and paired with a hand pad holder for uniform finishing, or on an inline or oscillating sander to cover larger areas. We manufacture Scotch-Brite(TM) Clean and Finish Rolls with a choice of silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, or talc abrasive mineral. Silicon carbide is a synthetic mineral that is very sharp and commonly used for low-pressure applications such as paint prep and finishing. Aluminum oxide is a hard, blocky mineral that provides high cut-rate and long life. While silicon carbide breaks down faster than aluminum oxide, it produces a finer finish. Talc is a mild abrasive that can be used achieve a satin finish or with polish to create a high gloss finish in topcoat rubbing applications. Our Scotch-Brite(TM) abrasives are unique surface conditioning products with abrasives incorporated into non-woven fiber matrix. Combining abrasives and non-woven material creates an abrasive system that delivers consistent results for the life of the product. The open-web material runs cool and is load resistant, which keeps the abrasive minerals cutting at high performance by limiting clogging of the fibers.
