Alpha® Diamond Hand Polishing Pads (60 to 3000 Grit)Alpha® Diamond Hand Polishing Pads deliver convenient, on-site polishing of glass, ceramics, marble, granite, concrete, terrazzo, and quartz surfaces. Two bond technologies cover the full grit progression: electroplated nickel-bond pads (60–500 grit) for aggressive shaping and edge work, and resin-bond pads (1000–3000 grit) for fine honing and high-gloss finishing.Features Full 60-to-3000 grit progression in a single pad family Electroplated grits (60-500) use nickel plating to lock each diamond in place for fast, aggressive cutting Resin grits (1000-3000) carry finer diamond for honing and final polish Compact 3.25" x 1.5" footprint fits curves, edges, and detail work Color-coded by grit for fast identification on the job Works dry or wet on natural & engineered stone, porcelain, concrete, glass .dst-accordion { margin-top: 25px; border: 1px solid #FDDCC5; border-radius: 6px; overflow: hidden; } .dst-accordion-item { border-bottom: 1px solid #FDDCC5; } .dst-accordion-item:last-child { border-bottom: none; } .dst-accordion-toggle { display: none; } .dst-accordion-label { display: flex; justify-content: space-between; align-items: center; padding: 14px 20px; cursor: pointer; font-size: 17px; font-weight: 700; color: #231F20; background: #fff; transition: background 0.2s; } .dst-accordion-label:hover { background: #FFF3EB; } .dst-accordion-label::after { content: '+'; font-size: 22px; font-weight: 700; color: #F15C22; transition: transform 0.3s; } .dst-accordion-toggle:checked + .dst-accordion-label { background: #FFF3EB; } .dst-accordion-toggle:checked + .dst-accordion-label::after { content: '\2212'; } .dst-accordion-content { max-height: 0; overflow: hidden; transition: max-height 0.4s ease; padding: 0 20px; background: #fff; } .dst-accordion-toggle:checked ~ .dst-accordion-content { max-height: 5000px; padding: 15px 20px 20px; } Models / Part Numbers Part No. Grit Size Bond Use UPC DHP0060 60 3.25" x 1.5" x 0.4" (83 x 38 x 10 mm) Electroplated Aggressive stock removal & edge chamfering 749173520617 DHP0150 150 3.25" x 1.5" x 0.4" (83 x 38 x 10 mm) Electroplated Coarse smoothing after rough shaping 749173520624 DHP0300 300 3.25" x 1.5" x 0.4" (83 x 38 x 10 mm) Electroplated Medium smoothing & blending 749173520631 DHP0500 500 3.25" x 1.5" x 0.4" (83 x 38 x 10 mm) Electroplated Pre-polish refining 749173520648 DHP1000 1000 3.25" x 1.5" x 0.4" (83 x 38 x 10 mm) Resin Honing & light polishing 749173520655 DHP2000 2000 3.25" x 1.5" x 0.4" (83 x 38 x 10 mm) Resin Fine polishing — satin finish 749173520662 DHP3000 3000 3.25" x 1.5" x 0.4" (83 x 38 x 10 mm) Resin Final polish — high gloss 749173520679 DHPKIT 60-3000 (Set of 7) 3.25" x 1.5" x 0.4" (83 x 38 x 10 mm) Electroplated Granite, Marble, Quartz, Concrete 749173520686 How to Use Select the lowest grit (60 or 150) only if the edge needs shaping or chamfering; otherwise start at 300. Work the pad in overlapping circular motions, keeping it flat against the surface. Use light, even pressure — let the diamond do the cutting; excess pressure shortens pad life. Step through grits in order (e.g., 300 → 500 → 1000 → 2000 → 3000); never skip more than one grit. Rinse or wipe the surface between grits to remove slurry before moving up. For best gloss on the 3000 finish, use water to keep the surface cool and clear.

Water keeps the surface cooler and produces a cleaner finish, especially at 2000 and 3000 grit.Do I need to use every grit in sequence?Step through grits in order without skipping more than one. Skipping multiple grits leaves scratches the next pad cannot remove, forcing you to drop back down.Which grit should I start with?Start at 60 or 150 only for shaping or chamfering an unfinished edge. For polishing an already-smooth surface, start at 300 or 500.Are these pads suitable for porcelain and engineered stone?Yes — the diamond abrasive cuts porcelain, quartz, and engineered stone in addition to natural stone and concrete.
