3M™ Black Stripper Pads 7200 , the industry standard against which all other stripping pads are measured, provide nearly 40 percent greater initial cut than competitors and offer high performance throughout the life of the pad. Coarse fibers and abrasives provide aggressive stripping performance, removing two to three layers of old finish. The web of fibers is permeated throughout with a uniform coating of resin and abrasive mineral particles, consistently delivering impressive cut over the life of the pad. The pad’s open-textured, non-woven construction resists clogging, allowing stripping solutions to flow through the pad. They can also be used with appropriate chemicals to clean heavily soiled hard-surface floors such as concrete.
