Polish Model Surfaces with Tamiya 87233

The Tamiya 87233 Sanding Cloth #1500 offers a reliable way to refine surfaces on scale models. Its flexible backing adapts to detailed shapes, helping to remove small flaws on plastic body panels without cutting too deep.

Works on Plastics and Light Metals

Designed for hobby use, this cloth performs well on plastic model car bodies and can be used on light metal and wood when careful sanding is required. It tolerates both wet and dry techniques while helping avoid fold marks.

Grit Identification and Use Cases

The grit label denotes abrasive coarseness; Tamiya's range runs from 600 (sky blue) to 3000 (gray). The pink #1500 grit is suited to smoothing and prepping surfaces prior to polishing or paint correction.

#1500 is a finishing grit but you may choose a finer grade afterward if you need a mirror-like polish. It is a good step before final polishing compounds.
Use light pressure and frequent inspection, and switch to wet sanding to reduce dust and achieve a clearer surface for polishing.
Yes, for wet sanding rinse thoroughly to clear debris. Dry it flat before storage and replace when the abrasive performance drops.
