Arrived exactly as I ordered and was expecting. Thank you

Every now and again I'll come across a product here on amazon that people are raving about and it will just be a bunch of hype but in this case the hype is 100% genuine. The are hands down the best flap discs I have ever used even beating discs I paid 2x the money for. When I used these to remove 9 layers of paint from some metal parts to refinish them, I could not believe my eyes on how quickly this stripped it down to bare metal. I had to put in so little effort that I didn't even drain a dinky 4Ah M18 Milwaukee battery doing all the pieces. I am extremely pleased with this product and sad that I hadn't heard of this brand before. If you are looking for something that works well, is fast, fits well and is durable look no further this it's the best you can get.

I do use a lot of these type of sanding disc and have used many brands. These discs are good and thick with 5 layers. Many discs on Amazon or Harbor Freight are very thin with just 2 or 3 layers of abrasive sheets stacked together. Pay close attention to the number of layers looking at disc wheels from the side. From a vertical line count the layers. The more layers there are, the longer they will perform better as they wear down through the disc. The cheapie ones have 3 and the higher quality ones have 5 or more layers. Also compare the cloth thickness of the layers. For many discs on the market the price is all over the place. Ranging from $3.50 to $8.00 each and most are the cheaper thin ones. Don't be fooled by the price. The big home improvement stores rip you off for these discs and they are usually thinner. These discs are balanced fairly good, and the price is good. The only reason I gave them 4 stars is, it seems that they might vibrate some when they are used aggressively. I use them mostly for pre-cleaning mill scale on steel before welding. I know most of you old hands know how hard mill scale is to remove. (But for newbies, for scale removal where some scratches are not important, start out with a 36 grit wheel). These also work well on rust, grinding down welds and just about anything else. Always wear good eye protection, a proper fitting respirator, and hearing protection when using grinders. I wished I would have taken better care of my ears when I was younger. How many of you older guys agree with me on that? Also don't let others around you breath this dust. Any way I will update again after I have used the rest of these in a few weeks. So far they are recommended. Sorry, I don't want to sound like a know it all, but I have used many of these and I wanted to pass on the info. Thank you for reading. Update:5/3/17 I just received my second order of 10 discs. The first ones worked pretty good for the price so I reordered them. Good discs.

Extremely impressed with their performance as well as their longevity. The ones that would appear worn out my simply looking at them still work exceptionally well where you need a flap wheel, but you don’t need the aggressiveness of a new one. Will definitely be buying more of these.

I bought these disks due to a YouTube channel I watch, and I couldn’t agree more that these disks rock! I’ve used them to sharpen lawn mower blades, to get rid of paint from wood, and rust from sea cans
