Abrasive Tools & Cutting Supplies for Port Perry, Ontario
Lake Scugog's waterfront sets the tone for Port Perry — a community where marine services, agricultural trades, and artisan craftsmanship share space with a growing residential base. The boat repair and refinishing shops around the marina see heavy seasonal demand for sanding discs and polishing wheels, while the agricultural community north of town keeps a steady need for grinding and cutting consumables through the working season. Add in the rural property contractors building custom homes and outbuildings around Lake Scugog's shoreline, and Port Perry draws on a surprisingly diverse mix of abrasive applications. Whitby Abrasives is 35 minutes south on Highway 7A — stocked and ready for same-day pickup.
Trusted by Port Perry Marine, Agricultural & Rural Trades
Marine shops servicing Lake Scugog watercraft depend on sanding discs across a wide grit range — from 80-grit for removing old bottom paint and oxidized gelcoat, up to 220 or 320 grit for final prep before topcoat application. Polishing wheels see similar use for metal finishing on hardware and fittings. The agricultural community north of Port Perry uses flap discs and grinding wheels for weld cleanup on steel equipment, and cutting wheels for fabrication work on farms that do much of their own maintenance in-shop. We keep all of it in stock, all year round.

What sanding discs should I use for preparing fibreglass before painting a boat?
For fibreglass prep, the grit sequence matters. Start at 80 grit to remove old oxidized gelcoat or surface imperfections, then work through 120, 180, and 220 before applying primer. Use hook-and-loop discs for orbital sanders — they're easy to swap out as you step up through grits. For wet sanding the final finish coat, 320 or 400 wet-dry paper works well. We carry a good range of marine-compatible sanding discs; come in and describe what stage you're at and we'll match you to the right product.
