The abrasive surface uses a microstructured 3D pyramid design rather than randomly scattered grit, and that structure is what sets them apart in use: as the top layer of pyramids wears down, fresh sharp abrasive is exposed underneath. The disc cuts the same on the last panel as it did on the first, so you are not chasing an inconsistent finish as the paper dulls. At P3000 they refine clear coats, knock down minor defects, and prepare a surface for final polishing.

The construction is optimized for wet use, where the water film plus the open pyramid structure keeps heat down and stops the abrasive from loading up with residue. Run the 6 inch on hoods, roofs, and doors for coverage, the 5 inch for general panel work, and the 3 inch for spot repair, pillars, and tight areas.

The 5 inch handles general panel work and medium curves.
