Smooth Results with Tamiya 87162 Polishing Sponge Sheet 240

Modelmakers can rely on the Tamiya 87162 Polishing Sponge Sheet 240 for smoothing surfaces before final finishing. It works well on plastic kits as well as on wood and metal detailing, helping you achieve a clean base for paint.

Access Tight Areas with Ease

The soft foam lets the abrasive follow complex shapes, so corners and curved edges get even abrasion without gouging. Cut it into small tabs or strips to tackle recesses and fiddly parts.

Works Well Wet to Cut Dust

Using water while sanding reduces airborne dust and helps the sheet run freely across surfaces. This wet approach often gives a finer, more controllable finish for delicate model sections.

Yes, it is appropriate for smoothing primer coats. Use gentle strokes and check the surface frequently to avoid sanding through thin primer layers.
It can be used dry, but expect more dust and faster wear. Wet sanding is recommended for longer life and a cleaner finish.
Lifespan varies with pressure and material. With light wet sanding on plastic details you can get several sessions from a single sheet; heavier use will wear it faster.
Use very light pressure, lots of water, and avoid the fastest strokes. Test on a scrap piece first to prevent accidental haze or scratches on clear plastics.
