Start with a coarser grit and work finer for the best results. Use 80 grit for heavy calluses and corns. Use 100 grit for general rough skin removal. Use 180 grit for moderate skin smoothing and all-round treatment. Use 240 grit for fine smoothing after callus removal. Use 320 grit for final polishing and sensitive skin. Sponge (PDFB) pads are designed for the final polishing step to achieve long-lasting smoothness.

White PODODISC pads use the Expert White aluminium oxide abrasive with a special anti-clogging coating. This coating prevents organic dust from building up on the surface during use, which maintains consistent abrasive performance for longer. Regular pads use silicon carbide mineral abrasive. Both are single-use and provide professional-grade results, but the white pads are preferred by professionals who want a cleaner aesthetic and extended working life per pad.

PODODISC pads are strictly single-use — one pad per client. After the procedure, peel the used pad off the disc and place it in a covered waste bin. Dispose of with general salon waste according to your local council regulations. Never attempt to wash, disinfect, or reuse a disposable pad, as this compromises both hygiene and abrasive performance. Store unused pads in their original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

PODODISC comes in four sizes: XS (10mm) for hard-to-reach areas, cracks, and toe work; S (15mm) for localised calluses, cracks, and finger work; M (20mm) as a versatile all-purpose size for most pedicure tasks; and L (25mm) for large areas like heels and soles. Many professionals keep multiple sizes on hand to suit different treatment areas.
