Key Features
Overview
Mirka 23-342-080 Gold 6 Inch PSA Linkroll Disc P80 is a 6-inch pressure-sensitive adhesive sanding disc roll built for fast material removal and surface prep across a wide range of shop and jobsite materials. This is a sanding disc designed for high-speed sanding and general surface preparation. Model Number: 23-342-080. If you need one abrasive that can handle body filler, paint removal, primer sanding, hardwood, softwood, plastics, and non-ferrous metals without loading up too quickly, this is the kind of disc you keep within reach.
The big story here is balance. P80 grit is coarse enough to do real work, but not so rough that it becomes a specialty-only disc. It is a practical choice for knocking down filler, removing old coatings, leveling rough areas, and starting the sanding sequence before moving to finer grits. On real prep work, that means less time fighting a dull disc and more time actually flattening the surface.
Mirka’s Gold abrasive line is made for high-speed sanding, and that matters if you are running through multiple discs in a session. The semi-open grit binding and special stearate coating are there for a reason: they help reduce clogging and pill forming. In plain terms, the disc stays cleaner while sanding paint, primer, lacquer, filler, and similar materials that like to load up lesser abrasives. A cleaner disc cuts more consistently and usually lasts longer.
The 6-inch format fits the common size used in many sanding setups, while the PSA backing is meant for quick stick-on attachment and fast changeouts. That is useful when you are moving through prep stages or swapping discs often during refinishing, automotive work, woodworking, or paint correction prep. The Linkroll format also keeps the discs organized as a roll, which is a cleaner way to store and pull abrasives than dealing with loose stacks.
Material range is one of the strongest reasons to buy this Mirka sanding disc. Source data lists it for copper alloys, brass, bronze, non-ferrous metal, plaster, filler, fiberglass, synthetic materials, chipboard, veneer, plastics, primer, paint sanding, body filler, hardwood, soft or resinous wood, and lacquers. That makes it a solid fit for shops that bounce between substrates and do not want separate abrasives for every small task.
This is a good buy for automotive refinish work, cabinet and millwork prep, general woodworking, remodeling, and serious DIY surface prep. If your typical jobs involve stripping, leveling, shaping filler, or getting a surface ready for the next sanding stage, the Mirka 23-342-080 Gold 6 Inch PSA Linkroll Disc P80 makes sense. If you are already at the finish-sanding stage, you will want a finer grit. But for the front end of the sanding process, this is the right kind of aggressive.
Made to Keep Cutting
When you are sanding coatings, filler, or primer, a disc that loads up fast stops being useful fast. Mirka Gold is built to stay productive longer in those dusty, gummy sanding stages.
- Semi-open coating helps reduce clogging during sanding
- Special stearate treatment helps limit pill forming for a more consistent cut
Easy to Stock, Easy to Use
The Linkroll setup keeps discs together in a roll, which makes storage cleaner and grabbing the next disc quicker. That sounds small until you are working through a stack of abrasives in the middle of prep.
- 100-piece pack gives you shop-ready quantity for repeat work
- 6-inch PSA disc format is made for quick changeovers between sanding stages

Pro Tip
Use this P80 disc for the early sanding stages like shaping filler, stripping old finish, or leveling rough stock, then step to a finer grit before final primer or topcoat prep. That keeps you from wasting fine discs on work this grit handles faster.
Tool Nut’s Take
Mirka 23-342-080 Gold 6 Inch PSA Linkroll Disc P80 is the kind of shop abrasive that earns its shelf space
If you need a sanding disc that cuts hard, handles mixed materials, and does not give up the second it sees paint or filler, this one makes a strong case.
- Who it’s for: Pros and serious DIYers doing bodywork, paint prep, woodworking, refinishing, and general sanding where P80 is the right starting grit.
- Why it stands out: The Gold line is known for high-speed sanding, and the anti-clog design matters when you are working on coatings, primer, filler, and lacquered surfaces.
- Worth knowing: This is a coarse prep disc, not a finish-sanding disc. Buy it when you need removal and leveling, then follow with finer grits for the final surface.
