There are several important factors for any bodyshop to consider in its sanding operations such as speed, performance and quality of finish. However, it is also vital that the equipment and materials used in the process can provide the operator with a clean and safe working environment. Autopaint Supplies can now offer a highly effective sanding solution for bodyshops with the introduction of the new Mirka 1230 Dust Extraction Unit, to complement Mirka Autonet dust free sanding discs.

The Mirka 1230 L is a professional dust extractor that has a high performance motor and turbine, which creates very impressive suction of 250 mbar vacuum and 4500 l/min air flow. The unit features an AutoStart function which means it is only operational when the sanding tool is being used. This increases the lifetime of the motor and reduces noise.

In distinctive Mirka Yellow the extractor has a flat top with space for storage and large wheels for easy manoeuvrability. It also has convenient hose and cable storage and offers easy filter access and cleaning. The unit comes with a fleece dust bag it is suitable for both dry and wet sanding applications.

Mirka extraction units are renowned for their quality and performance and the 1230 L is a perfect way for bodyshops of any size to increase sanding efficiency while also providing a safe working environment.

Autopaint is also introducing some special promotions this month on its Mirka Autonet dust free Sanding Discs. Autonet discs are specially developed for the automotive refinishing and offer a unique combination of speed, efficiency and dust extraction ability.
