Cork Polishing AdvantageAbrasives made with 3M™ Cloth Roll 464W are best suited for metal sanding and finishing thanks to its durability and fast cutting abrasive material. Its heavy, Y-weight cloth backing provides smooth operation and durability and can conform to the shape of contoured parts for consistent finishing. The abrasive side features closed coat construction for consistent finishes for an even visual grain pattern, and cork Particles embedded in the product help to provide soft, bright finishes for the best polished look. The distinct blue color and cork particle surface helps to easily differentiate it from other grits and grains. Silicon Carbide AbrasivesThis cloth uses silicon carbide, which is a popular choice among industrial professionals because of its fast cut-rate and smooth finish. This synthetic mineral is very hard and fractures easily, resulting in freshly exposed sharp edges that cut extra fast and produce a smooth, professional-looking finish. Silicon carbide products are commonly used for low-pressure applications such as cleaning and finishing on wood and metal. While it wears faster than aluminum oxide, it produces a superior finish. Waterproof and Heat ResistantThis cloth also uses a resin bonding which is specially designed to resist thermal and chemical deterioration, which can occur during sanding. This bond is very tough and excellent for precision work on hard and soft wood. This also allows for faster sanding and a higher cut rate. Closed coat construction features a dense spread of abrasive grains across the surface of the cloth. This design cuts fast and provides a consistent, fine finish. The waterproof backing also enables the user to rinse areas of the workpiece and the cloth during use to prevent dust and debris from clogging the points of the abrasive, while producing a faster cut at the same time.
