Alpha Ceramica Metal Polishing Pads are flexible polishing pads designed for preparation and polishing of harder natural stone, including granite, engineered stone, and porcelain slab. These pads combine the cutting characteristics of a metal bond diamond with the flexibility of a resin bond polishing pad, allowing controlled material removal while maintaining surface conformity.
This hybrid construction supports efficient stock removal during early polishing stages and improves surface conditioning prior to resin polishing steps. The flexible structure allows the pads to conform to flat, curved, and profiled surfaces while maintaining consistent contact across the work area.
The pads are commonly used for polishing internal corners, inside sink cutouts, curved edges, and concave surfaces where rigid tools are difficult to control. Available in 60, 150, and 300 grits, the sequence supports progressive refinement of the surface prior to final finishing.
