The Flexipads 35mm P5000 Sanding Discs provide ultra-fine finishing ahead of polishing and are designed to fit the Flexipads Cork Pad via hook-and-loop attachment. The pack of 10 discs covers recurring sanding tasks in paintwork, metal finishing and preparation before buffing. See more sanding discs for paintwork in our range.
The P5000 grit sits at the top of the fine range and leaves an even surface with minimal scratch marks, reducing the need for heavy Compound work in subsequent steps. The discs are used both professionally in reconditioning workshops and by home enthusiasts aiming for an even, professional-looking finish.
When Do Flexipads Sanding Discs Make the Most Sense?
The sanding discs come into their own in the final sanding stage before polishing or painting, when the surface has already been worked with coarser grit and needs an ultra-fine finish. They are particularly useful when working with metal, wood and plastic where a smooth finish is required before the next step in the process.
Applications for Flexipads Sanding Discs
- Fine sanding of metal before polishing
- Wood surfaces to be varnished or oiled

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Do Flexipads Sanding Discs Work for Heavy Material Removal?
No, the Flexipads Sanding Discs with P5000 grit are designed for fine sanding, not heavy material removal. To remove more material, coarser grit should be used first, with the sanding discs then used as the final fine-sanding step before polishing.
Can Flexipads Sanding Discs Be Cleaned and Reused?
Yes, the hook-and-loop attachment makes it easy to remove the disc from the Cork Pad for cleaning between tasks. The Flexipads Sanding Discs can be used multiple times as long as the sanding surface is not worn, making them cost-effective for professional use in reconditioning workshops.
What Sets Flexipads P5000 Sanding Discs Apart from Other Fine-Sanding Discs on the Market?
The Flexipads Sanding Discs are specifically designed to fit the Flexipads Cork Pad via hook-and-loop attachment, giving a secure fit during work. The consistent P5000 grit delivers a predictable, ultra-fine result that is difficult to achieve with generic discs lacking a matched attachment. See Flexipads Cork Pads in our range.
