Automotive Finishing and Spot Repair
Automotive Finishing and Spot Repair with Cordless Tools
The perfect finish goes all the way to the smallest details. Mirka is prepared to help you give your full attention to production and refinishing. Removing imperfections from painted surfaces requires a skilled hand, but also a high-quality abrasive that gives a consistent finish, together with Mirka’s cordless tools.
Mirka spot repair abrasives work consistently on top coats, lacquer, clear coat and composite, making imperfections disappear while remaining sharp for a longer time.
Good to Know About Spot Repair and Finishing
What is denibbing?
In automotive manufacturing and refinishing, after a coat of paint or clearcoat has been applied, there is a chance that small imperfections such as dust nibs become embedded in the surface. With careful sanding and polishing of the spot in question, the surface imperfection can be made to disappear, without the need to refinish the entire panel.
Why is the abrasive quality important?
Every sanding step should make the following step easier. With a consistent scratch pattern, the sanded spot is far easier to polish out, making it impossible to see where the imperfection once was.
What is the benefit of using cordless tools?
When performing detail work, there should be no distractions, and keeping the cord of a power tool away from a freshly finished surface is very important. With a cordless tool, you are free to focus on the job at hand, making it easier to go for the best possible finish.
Mirka Iridium SR - Dedicated to the Finish

The triangular silicon carbide grains of the Mirka Iridium SR spot repair abrasive form new abrasive edges whenever they break down during the sanding process, prolonging its sharpness. This gives you a world-class, uniform cut and scratch pattern that is fast and easy to polish out.
