Diamond Polishing Pads 4 inch Wet/Dry Set of 11+1 Backer Pad Best Value Granite Concrete

I use these for polishing field stone, which is very hard on polishing pads. These held up much better than the ones previously used.

Im working on 120 linear feet of tumbled rock wall topped by granite caps. I bought these to soften some edges on the caps and had high hopes before they arrived. However, I was severely disappointed when I opened the box. First, on the plus side, the pieces were all there and the packaging was fine. That said, the pads didnt look right as they seemed to be missing the diamond specs. My first test was to close my eyes and rub my fingers across the pads. I literally could not tell the difference between the 50 grit pad and the 6000 grit pad. Anyone who has used both will get right away that doesnt bode well for effectiveness. Ive never experienced that before, and it was not a great confidence builder. I decided I might as well try the pads to see if maybe they had invented a diamond pad where actual abrasion wasnt important to them working -- Always the optimist. I went ahead and used the 50 grit pad. However, after a few minutes I had precious little dust, let alone any material removal. Net, maybe their 50 grit is useful as a 3000 grit replacement. However, if you are actually looking to use any of the 50 grit to perhaps 1500 grit pads, I would avoid this. IMHO.

We bought these to polish/ grind our new granite counter tops that we installed ourselves. Honestly, I dont think my husband used all of the pads yet, but the ones he did use he was very happy with. I will mention that if you are doing granite, you should probably practice on a junk slab with the higher grit pads. We accidentally took a good size chip out of the granite when trying to grind a corner to make a rounded edge (but it isnt noticeable when the granite glue was added). After my husband figured out the angle and pressure to use our grinder at, he didnt have any more problems. These pads are great

Good product

Ive only used them twice.. they seem really good.. definitely good price... one of them was wearing uneven, but was that my grinder? I dont know.

Good value for the price of them. Other more expensive types work faster, but these are a better deal but more time consuming. They don’t stick to Velcro as well as hoped and can fly off if you can’t control the speed of your sander.

Soon after I ordered this product I got a friendly email from the seller indicating they would ship it right away and What you buy is 11+1 Pad, and you will get 13+1, since we have attached 1 more Grit 400 800 as EXTRA FREE GIFT to you. Nice of them and I appreciate the gift. Unfortunately, when I received the product and tried to use the 50 grit, the pad literally wore out in minutes. I had to switch back to the original (which I was going to throw away) just to finish the job. The original pads came with a SECCO WVPOLSET 4-Inch Variable Speed Wet Polisher Kit. The original 50 grit had at least 20 minutes of heavy use and lasted another 15 minutes. The new 50 grit pad was worn out in 5-10 minutes.

With just a little practice these worked great. I cut granite and polished the edges to match the finished top. They seem durable and should last.

I used these on a die grinder to dry polish a concrete counter top. They worked great and show almost no signs of wear on most of them. One of the 50 grit one lost some chunks around the edges from use on corners but that is to be expected, especially since the counter had broken glass embedded in it. The pads polished no only the concrete, but the glass as well. I am extremely impressed and I would recommend them to anyone looking to polish concrete.

UPDATE - after two years: I purchased an orbital sander and gave it another try in parts of the shower walls, although these are one inch smaller and wet polishing almost destroys the sander, the results were good. I wish they were 5 inches. I really couldnt make my shower any better, for me was waste of the money and time and energy. I bought and used both wet and dry ones with no acceptable results I spend a lot time watching videos and reading and tried my best, I assume if I couldnt get results with this much effort, no body(unless professional pulisher) cant do it either.
