Resin Pro offers the possibility to achieve a perfect polishing by using different types of abrasive pastes. It can be used by hand or with an orbital polisher to make your resin creations shiny. Ebonite Abralon Sanding Pads Cosmetically appealing, consistent scratch pattern provides excellent traction. Combines the benefits of abrasive cloth and non-woven products. Opening in the fabric allows water to flow freely around the abrasive. Solid surface and foam backing provide even surface pressure. Last 5+ times longer than sandpaper. Use wet or dry (residual material can be removed by high pressure air). Now it's possible to get the most aggressive surface texture without that "cheese grater" look. Abralon sanding pads use silicon carbide particles that are precision sifted to a consistent grain size, then bonded evenly to a six-inch round fabric face for the most even scratch pattern available. WARNINGS: During processing, use protective masks, gloves, and other protective clothing. In case of contact with eyes, immediately rinse with cold water for 15 minutes and immediately consult a doctor. The kits may include by variations:  EpoxyPolish Polishing cream – 250 ml [8,79 oz] - 1pc Ebonite Abralon Sanding Pads: - Ebonite Abralon Sanding Pad 150mm 360 grit - 1pc - Ebonite Abralon Sanding Pad 150mm 500 grit - 1pc - Ebonite Abralon Sanding Pad 150mm 1000 grit - 1pc - Ebonite Abralon Sanding Pad 150mm 2000 grit - 1pc - Ebonite Abralon Sanding Pad 150mm 3000 grit - 1pc - Ebonite Abralon Sanding Pad 150mm 4000 grit - 1pc EpoxyPolish Polishing cream   How to Use: Step 1: Thoroughly clean the surface with a cloth. Step 2: Now you can polish by hand or with an orbital polisher. We recommend using the lowest possible speed to get the best result. Start Polishing with 360-500 grit. Note: Sand the entire surface evenly with circular movements and light pressure. Moisten the pad or the surface with water from time to time. Step 3: Now use the 1000 grit sandpaper. Note: Moisten the sandpaper or the surface with water from time to time. Step 4: Afterwards, use 2000 grit sandpaper. Note: Moisten the sandpaper or the surface with water from time to time. Lastly, use 4000 grit sandpaper to finish sanding. Step 5: Remove the sandpaper from the polishing disc and attach a soft sponge to it. Rinse the surface or wipe it with a damp cloth to remove any residual grain of the sanding. Step 6: Apply EpoxyPolish Polishing cream on the damp sponge. Use by hand or with an orbital polisher, using a large circular motion and exerting slight pressure. Step 7: Clean the surface with plenty of water to remove all the remaining residues. Step 8: Enjoy the result!!!

Carbon Polish Black (250ml) is the defined product for polishing your carbon, dark or black surfaces. The aesthetic and economic value of the carbon product is high, and for this reason it is essential to treat the surface with specific and dedicated products, which enhance the beauty of the “carbon look”. It is important to avoid “generic" products that can spoil the work done, with insufficient gloss or even worse, fail to remove scratches. EASY TO APPLY AND REMOVE MISCIBLE WITH WATER ODOURLESS DOES NOT WHITEN PLASTIC PARTS DOES NOT CONTAIN SILICONES VERY LOW ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT The carbon polishing paste Carbon Polish Pro Black has been developed in a black colour precisely to ensure a brilliant finish and without white dots, typical of generic abrasive pastes. It can therefore be used for all dark surfaces (especially resin).   Carbon Polish Pro Black is the specific paste for carbon; black colour prevents residues from remaining visible on surfaces after polishing. Thanks to the NAP (Nano Abrasive Particles) it is a 2 in 1 product; in fact it quickly removes scratches and defects from the surface and gives at the same time a deep shine like only a polish can do.   In addition, its Synthetic Polymers allow you to correct and fill all the imperfections on the surfaces of Resin and carbon fiber artifacts.   Eliminate scratches, defects and mirror shine with a single product!   Carbon Polish Pro Black carbon polishing paste can be used both on the painted carbon and directly on the epoxy resin that covers the carbon fibers. Unlike commercial Polishes, Carbon Polish Pro Black is 100% Made in Italy, born from over 50 years of tradition in polishing. It allows both the hobbyist and the professions to obtain performing results quickly and easily. Here are the simple steps to polish or eliminate blemishes from your carbon fibre surfaces: If you need to use glass paper to remove the deepest scratches, you can do so without hesitation. The polishing paste will then be able to remove the sanding marks and make the surface smooth and shiny. Here's how:- The polishing paste Carbon Polish Black can be used by hand with extreme simplicity, with the help of a microfiber cloth or a foam pad. Or it can be used with electric tools, such as a drill and flexible, equipped with a special shepherd and foam pad (8000-12000 rpm) or with a polisher (1000-2000 rpm both rotary and ro orbital) with foam pad or wool (also synthetic). The use of tools of this kind will speed up the maintenance and ensure optimal results in even faster times.   How to prepare the surface to be polished? Here are the tricks to make the most of NAP (Nano Abrasive Particles) technology:-   Removals defects and scratches from sanding Depending on the depth of the scratch/defect, start with abrasive papers grit 800-1000 (for deep scratches) or simply 3000-4000 (for light scratches), always tend the surface wetted with water (this will help to make the result homogeneous) Apply the polishing paste for carbon fiber on the surface and spread it with circular and more or less energetic movements depending on the defect you want to remove. Or by directly attaching the buffer of the polisher / hose. We recommend one / two drops of carbon polishing paste every 3-4 cm. You can apply it several times thanks to synthetic polymers, without risking consuming the carbon, until the result is perfect. Clean up simply with water and a clean cloth. Put on your sunglasses and enjoy the dazzling result! Surface renewal: The product is also suitable as a fast and effective tool to renew your precious carbon surfaces, which wear out with normal use or exposure to atmospheric agents. In this case, the process is even easier: it is sufficient to apply the paste on the surface (well cleaned) and roll it out with circular movements, or by directly applying the buffer of the polisher / flexible.   We recommend one / two drops of carbon polishing paste every 2-3 cm.   The carbon polishing paste Carbon Polish Pro Black has been developed in black colour precisely to ensure a brilliant finish and without white dots, typical of generic abrasive pastes, and can therefore be used for all dark surfaces (especially resin). The special formula is free of volatile silicones and is therefore not harmful to health; it can also be used in painting processes.

Can be used wet or dry for sanding almost any type of material, flat or contoured. 70 x 100 x 25mm. Bonded silicone carbide Bonded silicone carbide Use wet or dry For flat or contoured surfaces How to Use a Foam Sanding Block with Epoxy Resins Allow the Epoxy to Cure: Ensure that the epoxy resin has fully cured and hardened before sanding. This will prevent the resin from smearing or becoming uneven. Begin Sanding: Gently rub the foam sanding block over the epoxy surface in a back-and-forth or circular motion. Apply light, even pressure to avoid creating new scratches or uneven areas. Check Your Progress: Periodically wipe the surface with a clean, dry cloth to remove sanding dust and check the smoothness. This will help you gauge how much more sanding is needed. Clean the Surface: After achieving a smooth finish, clean the epoxy surface thoroughly to remove any remaining dust. This can be done with a damp cloth followed by a dry cloth to ensure no moisture remains. Inspect and Finish: Once the surface is clean and dry, inspect it to ensure it's free of imperfections. If needed, you can apply a new coat of resin or polish the surface for a glossy finish.

If you have no a lot of experience or you prefer to work with more liquid resin, please, check this Resin 👉🏽 ART PRO 2. If you prefer to do art-works in more viscosity resin, please, choose ART PRO DELUXE. But if it`s your first experience, we suggest to design your project before pouring, because, in this case you have short working-time (15-20 min). Due to its exceptionally high viscosity, our Deluxe epoxy resin is ideally suited for delicate casting projects, including ocean art, pour-art, and other creations that demand a resin with superior viscosity. When undertaking basic castings of 1-1.5cm, special care is needed to address bubble formation. We recommend a multi-layer approach for such castings, employing a heat gun after each application. For these projects, we suggest considering our lower viscosity resins - "Transparente" and "Art-Pro" - as the optimal solutions.
