Review: Permatex 80037 valve grinding compound works great for engine valve lapping ⚙️ - I used this 3 oz white Permatex 80037 valve grinding compound during my small engine rebuild. It’s perfect for hand lapping valves to clean up minor surface flaws, carbon buildup and light corrosion on valve seats. The abrasive paste spreads easily and maintains consistent grit while grinding. After lapping, I got clean, even sealing marks around every valve face. It works on automotive, motorcycle and marine engines, and even handles chromium components. The tube seals well so the compound won’t dry out quickly between repair jobs. A small amount goes a long way; this tube is enough for multiple engine rebuilds. Way better than generic off-brand lapping paste. If you do your own valve work, this trusted Permatex grinding compound is a must-have in your shop. Highly recommend
Review: This small tub helped rescue my old motorcycle valves - These days I’m trying to stretch the life of my old Yamaha instead of replacing it, so I grabbed this valve grinding compound for a top-end refresh. Texture feels gritty but controlled, and it cuts nicely without chewing things up. I could feel the valves seating better as I worked, which was oddly satisfying 😅. Tube size is fine for a home garage, but I do wish the lid sealed tighter. I have a messy workbench in my home studio and it loves to pick up dust. I also found it a bit annoying to clean completely off the parts, so keep some extra rags and cleaner nearby. For the price though, I’m glad I used this instead of paying a shop.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the grit of this compound**
A: The back of the 3 oz. tube package (80037) says:

NOTE: there are 4 grit sizes in one application of the valve grinding compound: 220, 180, 150, and 120.  It starts as a course [sic] 120 grit then grinds down to a fine 220 grit.  To thin the compound, add a few drops of water.

**Q: What is the grit of this compound? Is this a total of 12 3-oz tubes, equaling 36 oz of compound? Thanks.**
A: I inquired with Permatex Technical Services: Both 80036 & 80037 are "...a mixture of four grits – 120, 150, 180, 220. As you begin using the compound it starts off as 120 and as you work it it ends up as 220." The difference between 36 & 37 is 1.5 and 3.0 oz tubes.

**Q: what material is this made with? most lapping compounds are made of either silica carbide, or diamond powder**
A: Silicon Carbide

**Q: Is this applicable for pet clipper blades, stainless steel, I need have a very slight concave?**
A: I don't know if it will work on the clippers . I use it on car engine valves and it does a great job on them .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Handy compound for our gym workshop
*by O***E on September 24, 2026*

. I grabbed it to freshen up an old air compressor valve that powers our lifting platform cleaners. I smear a thin ring on the valve seat, spin it with a simple suction tool, wipe, then check the seal. Took me about twenty minutes and the compressor stopped leaking and cycling nonstop. That alone made me glad I bought it. The tube is small but it goes a long way because you only need a dab each time. Texture is gritty but spreads smooth. Cap screws on tight so it has not dried out in the cabinet.
