Using microreplication technology, the 3M Trizact Hookit Film Disc 460L is designed to help with final finishing and defect repair prior to buffing and polishing on a variety of coating substrates. In automotive workshops or spaces where coating repair are common, this is a great abrasive to have on hand.
- 3M™ Trizact™ abrasives start sharp and stay sharp, resulting in more predictable finishes and improved, consistent results
- Silicon Carbide mineral cuts sharp but leaves a fine finish
- Flexible 3-mil film backing conforms to edges and contours, helping tackle tough areas
- Trizact construction for controlled and consistent breakdown, helping prolong abrasive service life
- Hookit™ attachment for easy change out of disc on power tool

Is this product suitable for professional auto body shops or only for DIY enthusiasts?
The abrasiveness level A7 of the 3M™ Finesse-it™ Hookit™ Film Disc makes it ideal for both professionals and hobbyists working on automotive finishes or other delicate surfaces.
Operators may wonder what makes the 3M Trizact Hookit Film Disc 460L equipped to level defects efficiently. It's a combination of essential ingredients, including mineral, backing, attachment system, and 3M Science.
Silicon carbide, a very sharp synthetic mineral, is chosen for this abrasive. It is commonly used for low-pressure applications such as paint prep. While it breaks down faster than aluminum oxide, it produces a fine finish that is desirable when prepping surfaces for topcoats, without too much aggressive scratching.
The backing is a flexible, waterproof 3-mil film backing that provides smooth operation and durability. It can conform to the shape of contoured parts for consistent finishing.
3M Hookit AttachmentHookit sanding discs conveniently attach to a hook-and-loop backup disc pad (sold separately). They can be removed cleanly and easily, and can be re-used again and again for the extent of the abrasive life. Hook and Loop Disc Pads have small plastic hooks that attach to loops on the back of the abrasive. Small tufts of fiber are pulled through scrim on the abrasive to create loops which, subsequently, attach to the hooks. The hook-and-loop feature makes disc attachment, removal, and re-attachment easy and facilitates use and re-use of the disc for the extent of the abrasive life.
The attachment of Hook and Loop Disc Pads acts like a cushion, providing some shock-absorption and buoyancy, especially when compared to other attachment styles and holder pads. Hook and Loop Disc Pads are great for workspaces where adhesive-backed discs may become contaminated by dust or dirt and are often used in applications where an adhesive-backed disc may be too aggressive.
3M Science, Trizact Abrasives3M Trizact abrasives revitalize light dimensioning and finishing work by reducing processing steps, increasing throughput, and creating consistency. Big benefits are achieved through a patented 3M technology called microreplication. During microreplication, small three-dimensional structures resembling pyramids are adhered to a backing. These "pyramids" contain layers of mineral, and they begin to break down after repeated use, continually exposing fresh mineral.
The cycle of mineral renewal sustains the abrasive's sharpness. Ongoing sharp cutting action reduces the need to swap out the abrasive, contributing to higher throughput and increased productivity.
Additionally, because mineral is uniformly distributed over the abrasive surface, the workpiece receives fixed rather than erratic contact for a consistent cut. From medical implants to surgical tools to automotive transmission components, 3M Trizact abrasives are uniquely suited for projects with acute technical requirements, delivering a consistent finish part after part.
