Diamond Hand Polishing Pads for Porcelain, Tile & Stone | DISTAR Hand Pad 2 Series
The DISTAR Hand Polishing Pad 2 Series is a professional-grade diamond hand polishing pad system designed for finishing porcelain tile edges, smoothing ceramic cuts, and polishing stone surfaces without the need for power tools.
These pads are ideal for tile installers, contractors, and fabricators who need precise control when working on delicate edges, corners, and detailed surfaces.
Key Features & Benefits
Perfect for Edge Finishing Without Power Tools
Unlike aggressive power tools, these hand polishing pads for tile and stone give you full control over your finish. Use them for:
- Smoothing sharp tile edges after cutting
- Polishing porcelain tile edges
- Refining stone surfaces
- Touch-up work on installed materials
Full Grit Range for Complete Polishing Progression
This system includes three grit options to handle every stage of finishing:
- #1 — 60 Grit (Coarse) — material removal & edge shaping
- #2 — 200 Grit (Medium) — smoothing & refinement
- #3 — 400 Grit (Fine) — pre-polish & finishing
Start coarse and move to finer grits for a smooth, professional finish. Each grit is sold individually as a variant.
Why Choose Hand Polishing Pads Instead of Power Tools?
Power tools can be too aggressive for finishing work. These manual polishing pads allow you to:
- Avoid chipping delicate edges
- Maintain full control over pressure
- Work in tight spaces and corners
- Achieve consistent finishing results
