Mirka Gold Proflex Sanding Sheets, Retail Packs, 23-104-RP Series
Product Overview
Mirka Gold Proflex 9" x 11" Sanding Sheets Retail Packs (23‑104-RP Series) are premium stearate‑coated aluminum oxide sanding sheets engineered for high‑quality dry hand sanding of wood, fillers, paints, lacquers, and composite materials.

SMSDistributors.com Expert Notes
Mirka Gold Proflex sanding sheets are one of the most versatile and reliable hand‑sanding abrasives available for woodworking, finishing, and paint preparation. Professionals choose Gold Proflex because the latex‑impregnated backing provides a level of flexibility that standard paper sheets simply cannot match. This makes them ideal for profiles, trim, moldings, curved edges, and detailed finishing work where cracking or creasing can be a problem.
The stearate coating significantly reduces clogging on paints, lacquers, and fillers, allowing the abrasive to maintain its cutting ability longer and produce a cleaner, more consistent scratch pattern. This is especially valuable for between‑coat sanding and fine finishing where surface cleanliness and uniformity matter.
Gold Proflex sheets are also popular in marine finishing and composite work because they resist loading and maintain flexibility even when sanding tight contours or irregular surfaces. Whether you are leveling filler, prepping for paint, or performing final finish sanding, Gold Proflex delivers predictable results and excellent surface quality.
We recommend Gold Proflex for shops and craftsmen who need high‑quality hand sanding sheets that perform consistently across wood, paint, lacquer, fillers, and composite materials. Their balance of flexibility, durability, and finish quality makes them a dependable choice for both professional and hobbyist applications.
