The Scotch-Brite™ Tack Pad absorbs dust as it glides across a surface without leaving any drag marks behind. Use this pad as the final step in your surface preparation, prior to applying a primer, a base coat, or clear coat paint.The Scotch-Brite Tack Pad is conformable, so it can reach dust on all surfaces of the workpiece, whether flat, contoured, or grooved. It is designed to work with all modern paint systems, including water-based paints, and can even help remove light nibs. The pad features an adhesive engineered to pick up dust without leaving behind any inconvenient residue on the workpiece or your hands. The adhesive will not dry out, so you get full use of the pad until the adhesive is exhausted.
