3M Polishing Papers - 12 Large sheets
3M Tr-M-Ite Polishing Papers - could this be the best abrasive there is for mirror polishing silver, acrylics, resin, wood and many other materials?
This is a great value BULK BUY set with 12 sheets of the 3M WetorDry Tri-M-Ite Polishing Papers. You get two full-sized sheets (US letter size which is very similar to A4) of each grit.
They're made from micron sized abrasive particles, slurry coated onto a non-woven synthetic backing. They are soft, cloth-like and paper thin, so wraps smoothly around your piece. You can also wrap the paper around a wooden stick, if you only want to polish the raised surfaces on your piece, for instance, if you have oxidised the piece.
The precision micron grading provides a uniform, consistent finish. These are sometimes referred to as Tri-M-Item papers, or lapping papers. They really give you the most fantastic mirror-like finish on metal clay and silver.

Luthiers and instrument makers - this product is loved by many of you for giving a beautiful finish to your frets and other wood work.
To hand finish your work to a mirror finish, start with the coarsest grit and work to the finest grit. When you see uniform fine lines, move to the next grit. Do not skip grits or you won't get a mirror finish. Grits are colour coded for easy identification.
Each sheet is 21.6cm x 27.9cm (8.5" x 11"). This is a US Letter size, which is very similar to an A4 sheet (A4 is a little taller, and Letter is a little wider of the two).

3m polishing papers
These are great! When I got them I was a bit dubious as they look just like, well, paper! But on using them, I am thrilled. Just polished up two silver bangles I made and they are so shiny and smooth. Would definitely buy these again!

amazing for polishing epoxy resin pieces
I used these papers with a 500 grit sandpaper in order to sand and polish some epoxy resin pieces I made, and they work perfectly. Definitely will buy again once I finish the ones I bought.

Great Polishing papers
These seem a little pricey up front, but you get so many papers, and they're huge- they'll last ages as long as you keep them stored neatly and use them carefully. It's always amazing to see my fired silver clay pieces shine up step by step with these- they really give a fantastic finish.
