FAQs
Can I use these discs for wet sanding?
No, the Mirka Microstar line is specifically engineered for dry use applications.
What is the primary application for P1500 grit?
P1500 is typically used for matting paint surfaces and preparing clear coats for final polishing.
Does this disc work with a non-vacuum sander?
While it can be used, a vacuum system is highly recommended to maintain cutting efficiency and prevent premature clogging.
How do I know when the disc is worn out?
The disc should be replaced when the cutting speed noticeably decreases or if the abrasive surface appears shiny and smooth rather than textured.
Are these compatible with all 150mm sanders?
Yes, they are compatible with standard 150mm random orbital sanders that utilize a hook-and-loop attachment system.
Troubleshooting
Disc detaches from backing pad during use
Check the hook-and-loop interface on the backing pad for wear; replace the pad if the hooks are flattened or clogged with dust.
Disc is clogging prematurely
Ensure your dust extraction system is functioning correctly and reduce the amount of pressure applied to the sander.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, attach the 150mm disc to a compatible hook-and-loop backing pad, ensuring the holes are aligned with your sander’s dust extraction ports. Since these are designed for dry use, ensure your vacuum system is active to minimize airborne particles. After use, brush off residual dust with a soft bristle brush or compressed air. Store the discs in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight and high humidity, as extreme environments can impact the effectiveness of the adhesive backing over time.
