Flexible sanding for curved and detailed areas

The Tamiya 87150 Sanding Sponge Sheet, graded 1500, is designed to help modellers achieve a fine finish on plastic kits and small components. The soft sponge backing lets the abrasive wrap around curves and reach recessed features without digging in.

Easy to shape and control

The sponge core allows even sanding pressure so you can work delicately on trims and seams. Cut to the exact shape you need with a modeling knife and use short strokes for consistent results.

Reduced dust with wet sanding

Intended for wet sanding, the Tamiya 87150 lowers dust and helps produce a smooth surface ready for polishing or clearcoating. It complements other grits in the Tamiya range such as 400, 600 and 1000 for a stepped finishing process.

Yes, the 1500 grit sponge is gentle enough for resin surfaces when used with light pressure. Test on a scrap piece first and use wet sanding to avoid heat build-up.
Work progressively from coarser grits like 400 or 600, then 1000 before finishing with the 1500. This staged approach removes defects without overworking the surface.
Exercise caution on clear canopies; use very light pressure and frequent rinsing. For optical clarity follow with polishing compound after the 1500 grit stage.
