Grit size P5000 places this sanding disc in the finest segment of abrasives, making it suitable for removing very fine scratches, orange peel and other surface defects without damaging the paintwork. Water spray is recommended during use to reduce frictional heat and extend the service life of the disc.

The foam backing delivers even pressure against the surface and conforms to the contours of the bodywork, contributing to a consistent sanding result even on convex and concave sections.

What is the Cartec Foam Sanding Disc P5000 and why choose it?

The Cartec Foam Sanding Disc P5000 is a wet sanding disc with a foam substrate, designed for the final stage of a manual or machine sanding process. Grit size P5000 is extremely fine and leaves minimal sanding marks, which shortens subsequent polishing work and provides a more even base for Polish or Compound.

The foam substrate sets this sanding disc apart from conventional paper-based alternatives – it provides better contact pressure against the surface, reduces the risk of uneven sanding marks, and is gentler on the paintwork. The product is part of the Cartec Abrasives range, which has been developed for professional use in paint correction and detailing.
