A method of spin welding a fastener to an article and such an article. In a preferred mode, a method of spin welding a fastener to a surface conditioning treating article is disclosed. The fastener comprises a generally planar base including a first side, a second side, and a drive member extending from the second side. The surface treating article comprises a working surface adapted to treat a workpiece surface, and a back surface, the back surface comprising an open woven scrim. The first side of the fastener base is melt-bonded by the spin weld method to the open woven scrim of the surface treating article.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A method for attaching a fastener to a surface treating article, comprising the steps of:a) inducing relative rotation between the fastener and the surface treating article,wherein the fastener comprises a generally planar base including a first side, a second side, and a drive member extending from the second side; andwherein the surface treating article comprises a working surface adapted to treat a workpiece surface, and a back surface, the back surface comprising an open woven scrim backing having at least 5% open area;b) contacting the first side of the fastener and the scrim backing together under pressure;c) maintaining relative rotation and pressure between the fastener and scrim backing sufficient to cause the fastener and scrim backing to become melt-bonded together; andd) thereafter stopping the relative rotation between the fastener and the surface treating article.
