View Full Version : Has Meguiar's discontinued their 3" sanding discs?

I was just on Meguiar's website, and I can't find their sanding discs listed in any of their products pages. I found the unigrit sheets and sanding blocks, but not the discs. Does anybody know if they've quit making them?

I love their unigrit papers. NOTHING else comes close to them. They cut sooo fast but sooo evenly, without ANY deep gouges (unless you're just trying to murder whatever you're sanding). Somehow they never clog up, and they last FOREVER. They make the other premium brands I've tried look like low grade junk in comparison.

As good as their papers are, I was disappointed in the discs. They're not bad, but they don't blow everything else out of the water. They're just as good as 3M or Norton, but no better, unlike the way the unigrit papers blow those brands out of the water.

I wish Meguiar's would take their unigrit Nikken papers, leave them exactly like they are, but cut them into 3" circles and slap some velcro on the back of em. I've been trying to figure out a way to do that myself, lol...and I'm only half joking about that.

I just got an order of two different grits of them from AG a few weeks ago. I know that doesn't answer your question, but if they were discontinued it's a very recent development. I sure hope they haven't been. They're waaaay cheaper than the 3M discs.

Yeah, Autogeek has them in stock, and I haven't heard anything about them being discontinued or anything like that. I just couldn't find them on Meguiar's website where they list all their products, so I figured I'd ask and see if they had recently announced that they were discontinuing them. If nobody has heard anything about it, then either somebody at Meg's messed up and forgot to upload them to their website, or I somehow missed them. I'm pretty sure I didn't miss them, though. I looked through their professional line, where they have all their sandpaper, and the discs weren't there. Then I did a search for "unigrit" then "disc" then "discs" and they still didn't show up as available products.

Talking about sanding discs there is a site having a big sale on them!
Time to stock up.

Not sure about sanding discs but the megs 3" b/plate is a joke, in terms of quality.

Please discontinue!

Thanks, Meghan. I just thought it was odd that I couldn't find them on Meguiar's website.
