Available shortly: NEW Coated Abrasive Strip Ring Sanding buffs!

Premium coated abrasive strips give these buffs the flexibility to deburr, round edges, and finely grind contoured parts with more aggression than a non-woven abrasive airway. Combines the fast cut of coated abrasives with the flexibility of a buffing wheel!

Especially useful for:

- Removing paint, tar, adhesives, silicone, and other surface contaminants
- Removing Durabrite/Accushield coatings
- Grinding down areas inaccessible to conventional sanding tools (drive wheel water channel, diamond playing, step grating, welds, cast aluminum, etc.)

Finish at roughly 1.5x the grit used on the belt, available in 5", 10", and 12" diameters in 120, 180, and 320 grit. Sanding grease highly recommended to reduce the aggression of the finish and extend the lifespan of these buffing wheels.

We recommend following with flat sanding or softening with a non-woven abrasive buff prior to cut polishing, where possible.

Caution: please use with safety gear including a respirator, face shield/safety goggles, and sleeves/gloves. Strips can be shorn from the buff and can be sent flying!

Canadian customers: please note that Kevin & Chris will be travelling to visit Hilzinger on Monday, August 17. As a result, if you need product please stop by or order by early Friday, August 14. Our warehouse in Missouri will continue shipping orders to US customers during our absence.

We'll be back in the office/warehouse on Thursday, August 20 and pending orders will be shipped out! We are expecting some backordered Hilzinger product but unfortunately it may not arrive before we leave so please take note of any products with a "Backorder" instead of "Add to Cart" button or a low product count (if there is 1 left in stock and you order 2, Shopify doesn't mark this as a backorder!). As you know orders over $350 in value ship Free to most of Canada but unless the order is larger we generally do not split orders into multiple shipments.

Tiger stripes and blotchy finishes don’t just happen.
They’re usually the result of skipping the prep work.

Skip the sanding, and you’ll have to cut harder.

That means more pressure on your buffs, more wear on your equipment, and more work for you. Proper prep makes polishing faster, easier, and delivers better results. 👊

Can you polish over scratches or do they need to be sanded out?
