DiamaPro 5“ Wet/Dry Honeycomb Pad, 30 grit

- Most aggressive grit in the resin honeycomb line — 30 grit is below the standard 50-grit "coarsest resin" tier, designed as a pre-polish prep pad rather than part of the standard polishing sequence. Used to open the concrete surface for stains, sealers, and thin-mil coatings, or to clean up minor scratches left by a coarse metal-bond pass before transitioning to standard resin polishing. Part of DiamaPro Systems' resin polishing pad line.

- Smaller 5" footprint for tight-area and detail polishing — the 5" diameter is sized for narrow edges, around columns and obstructions, on stair treads, in corners, and anywhere a 7" pad is too bulky to maneuver. At 30 grit specifically, the 5" pad is the right tool for edge prep ahead of stain or sealer application where the perimeter needs the same surface profile as the main floor. Choose 5" for precision work; choose 7" for production speed on open floors.

- Flexible honeycomb resin design for even pressure and dust evacuation — the hexagonal pattern molded into the pad's face creates large channels that evacuate dust during dry use and water during wet use, preventing the diamond surface from loading up. The honeycomb structure flexes around contours and lippage, maintaining consistent contact pressure across the entire pad face — important for an even profile when prepping for a coating.

- Wet/Dry dual-mode operation — usable in either condition: wet polishing reduces heat and extends pad life, dry polishing is more convenient on job sites without water access. Note: a 5" backing pad with hook-and-loop attachment is required to mount this pad to a 5" hand polisher (like the DiamaPro HGP-5). Do not run a 5" pad on a 7" backer — the size mismatch creates unsafe exposed hook-and-loop edges at high RPM.

- The "prep for stain or coating" pad for edge work — per industry guidance, 30-grit honeycomb is commonly used to open a floor's pores ahead of stain, dye, low-solids sealer, or thin-mil coating application. The pad creates enough surface profile for the coating to penetrate and bond, without grinding so deep that a metal-bond approach would be needed. On a 5" pad, this is the practical edge-prep choice when the main floor is being prepped with larger walk-behind tools.
