Blue Film Honing Pads - Packs of 5.
These abrasive sharpening film for use on flat hone beauty shear sharpening equipment are ideal sanding / grinding discs for sharpening and honing convex and bevel type of quality beauty shears. Image shown is actual grain. These are industrial grade hook and loop Blue Film sanding discs. Blue Film is made on a 5 mil PET film base using PREMIUM aluminina zirconia stearate grain, with an open coat. Zirconium is tougher than aluminum oxide, can handle extreme pressures, and outlasts aluminum oxide products. Plus, zirconia alumina sharpens itself with each use, so you get the most out of every pad.
Features of the Blue Film Honing Pads
Multiple grits.
Approximate General equivalency to the micron pads from 3M you may have been using
Suggestion for flathone shear sharpeners… Start with 600, 1000 and 1500 grit or try some of all to see what grit you like. Mark the center of the Blue Film with size. The Blue Film is marked on the back, but it is hard or impossible to tell apart when on your plates. Experiment with the other grits. Use water on the blue film just as you have the 3M micron film in the past. Please give me your feedback. Personally I like this film more than 3M and am amazed it costs less!
